点评:John got us up and down Carrountohill in 7.5 hours. I wanted to wear my trail runners but John insisted that I would appreciate the extra ankle support and he was right. We took our time as we had some nervous scramblers with us. John was steady and patient with everyone. He also pointed out the other routes in the area (the horseshoe) should we want to come back again. I certainly will return as it was an epic climb with some of the best views I have ever had. The only negative for me and this is nothing to do with the guiding was the descent from the summit. I hate loose scree and my knees turned to jelly on it. The positives for us was that it was a real bonding session for the family. John also took photos which none of us noticed until he sent them to us. Weather was unbelievably good.
翻译:约翰带我们花了7.5个小时爬上爬下卡隆托山。我想穿我的越野跑鞋,但约翰坚持说我会喜欢额外的脚踝支撑,他说得对。我们慢慢来,因为我们身边有一些紧张的攀岩者。约翰对每个人都很沉稳耐心。他还指出了该地区的其他路线(马蹄形路线),如果我们想再来的话。我一定会再来的,因为这是一次史诗般的攀登,沿途的景色是我见过的最美的。对我来说唯一的缺点,这与向导无关,就是从山顶下山的路。我讨厌松散的碎石,我的膝盖踩上去都软得像果冻。对我们来说,好处是,这真的增进了我们一家人的感情。约翰还拍了照片,直到他把照片发给我们,我们才注意到。天气好得令人难以置信。
