Carn Aosda ahead |
The Cairnwell from Carn Aosda |
Drop down to this bealach |
Cloud covering Carn a' Gheoidh |
However, a well worn track takes us along level to the base of Carn a'Gheoidh and thankfully the cloud clears. Now, is a final short stony climb to the cairn.
Carn a' Gheoidh cairn |
There is no shortage of hares up here and some are pretty big indeed.
Leaving the summit we backtracked for a while then headed to Carn nan Sac for lunch.
Creag a' Choire Dhirich |
It was atmospheric as the clouds were now drifting in and out but it was a fine walk along the top of the Choire taking it all in.

Back down the grassy slopes to the car |
Overall we took our time enjoying the day. You could shave at least an hour off our time if you were in a hurry.
As said a really good day and pleased I did the circuit. Nothing to be frowned upon unless you used the chairlift to get up as quite a few were doing.
