The initial woodland walk was really nice, despite me having to double back to close the car window.
Unsurpisingly I got good views of Beinn Alligin, with more to come.
And on the other side - Liathach - I split that in two - Mullach an Rathain one day and SpideanaChoireLeith two years later.
And then we hit the open hillside, and took the right fork.
Hadn't realised you can't see the top from here! But the route heads up to the central beleach
And the full set of key Torridon peaks. Sorry for the slightly dodgy picture stitching!
That's more like what is should look like over there.
Top 868 of Beinn Damh, which I sadly thought was the top. Must get a new map!
Reached the ridge, and got a veiw south west to Loch Kishorn?
From the shoulder of 868 looking north west over Sgurr na Bana Mhoraire, with the route I followed on the way up to the right. Loch Damh on the left, and Loch Torridon heading out to sea.
The top, or so I thought. A bit of a check and I realised that it was the next summit, over there. Still a nice view of An Ruadh Stac behind it (still to do that corbett) and Maol Chean-dearg on the left.
So onwards I marched. Still looks a bit of a way away!
Looking back to the top I have just come over.
Finally made the real top. All worth it.
Tomorrow's hills are over there on the left somewhere.
Loch Kishorn, and Skye off in the distance.
Decided to stay on the path rather than take the shortcut. Then off up Glen Torridon for an overnight camp, and more hills tomorrow.
