Night climbs can be fun, route cards being left help if you stick to them.

Never drink on the hills. Gives you a false sense of security and lowers awareness.

Then it means people like me have to get you off the hills

Do it when the conditions are right, get your timings right and watch the sunrise from the top. It's pretty special.

Get well organized and go careful,carried too many people off the hills over the years who thought they knew what they were doing.

Top tip. Even the most experienced still encounter issues.
