May Bank Weekend we took a flight to Inverness and walked into Glen Affric for two nights at the remote Allt Beithe Youth Hostel. From there we bagged; An Socach (921m), Sgurr nan Ceathreamhnan (1151m), Mullach na Dheiragain (982m) – we used this route Mam Sodhail (1181m), Carn Eige (Carn Eighe) (1183m), Beinn Fhionnlaidh (1005m) then on to Tom a’Choinich (1112m) and Toll Creagach (1054m) – we used this route
Weather was a bit mixed with white out blizzards, so we didn’t take any photos.
We did however get some good bagging in…
A fab winters day out bagging; Aonach Beag (1116m) Aonach Mor (1221m) by easy gully, which was really quite steep at the top and not at all easy.
We took the advantage of the long Easter to May Bank Holiday period to whittle Heather’s remaining Munros down to just 2 left. We had booked a cottage in Ullapool but on the drive up we bagged Beinn Mheadhoin (1182m) pronounced “Ben Vane” in the Cairngorms, and also Ben Wyvis Glas Leathad Mor (1046m) after stopping » read more »
A long weekend based in Aberfeldy. We bagged… the Beinn a’Ghlo group; Carn Liath (975m) Braigh Coire Chruinn-bhalgain (1070m) & Beinn a’Ghlo-Carn nan Gabhar (1121m) the western half of the Glen Lyon 4; Carn Gorm(1029m) & Meall Garbh (968m) It was particularly cold & windy so we didn’t get a lot done.
