Cairn on the Great Tower
A misty, wet day on Tower Ridge. This cairn is at the top of the Great Tower, close to the top of the ridge. All that lies between here and the summit of Ben Nevis is the Tower Gap (and a little more climbing...)

Fort William, Cow Hill and Ben Nevis
Although Fort William is often described as a "Gateway to Ben Nevis", the summit cannot be seen from the town because the view is blocked by Cow Hill. To get a view of Ben Nevis from this direction, you have to go onto Loch Linnhe.
