A teenage adventurer has conquered one of Scotland's highest mountains.

Natasha Lambert, who has athetoid cerebral palsy and uses a wheelchair, reached the top of Cairn Gorm on Monday as part of her latest challenge.

The 19-year-old used a special device called a Hart Walker to ascend the 1245m peak, which she bagged in five and a half hours.

She was assisted on her climb by her father Gary, mother Amanda, sister Rachel and a support team including local mountain safety advisor Heather Morning.

The whole team was needed to assist in guiding Natasha over the rough, steep terrain which, on numerous occasions, required the entire walking device to be lifted bodily over boulders.

Weather varied from bright sunshine to hail and winds of over 25mph at the summit.

Ms Morning said: "It was a privilege and a pleasure to spend the day with such an inspiring and determined team.

"Both Natasha and her support team showed a huge amount of drive and determination to succeed in their goal of reaching the top of Scotland's sixth highest mountain.

"The day really highlighted to me that, with the right attitude, however many hurdles are set in your way, anything is possible."

Ms Lambert, who comes from the Isle of Wight, is now sailing from Inverness to Glasgow on her specially-designed yacht Miss Isle Too, which she sails using only her breath.

Her father said: "What Tash has just achieved today is awesome.

"That's a very big mountain, it's one of the Munros and she's managed to climb to the top of it. I am in awe."

Ms Lambert has previously sailed round the Isle of Wight, crossed the English Channel and guided her yacht from Cowes to the heart of London.

Funds raised through her latest adventure will be used to support her charity the Miss Isle School of Sip Puff Sailing, which helps people with similar conditions get into sailing.
