A rather in depth guide of one of, if not the best Moderate climbs in the UK: The Dubh Slabs on the Isle of Skye's Black Cuillin mountain range. To quote the SMC Guide: “This is the best easy climb in Skye and a contender for the best easy climb in Britain”. Although technically easy, The Dubh Ridge is a very long route in a remote setting. Getting benighted is a distinct possibility if you make a route finding error, and a retreat may not be straight forward. This article will offer some additional information not available in the guide books which may help keep you on track and with any luck get you there and back in a day.
