Creag Pitridh and Geal Charn

Not too wet, but got a bit breezy right enough

Found a nice spot to park, just of the A86 at the end of Loch Laggan.  Damn those midgies.

Our hills in the mist on the left, and Beinn a Chlachair in the mist on the right.  Our track sneaking up the middle.

Lochan na H-Earba - what a strange name.

Starting to climb .  Edge of Creag Meagaidh behind us across Glen Spean.

Many rivers to cross

And up we go.  Great path.

So far so good, and dry!

And there is our first hill, Creag Pitridh.

Damper, but from this point only about 100 more metres to climb for our first one.

Dumping our sacks

Views make it all worthwhile as ever.

Honest, this is Geal Charn we are now climbing.

Cleared up enough to see the cairn at last, but very breezy.

It was a biggie.

Time for late lunch

then back into the mist

Cleared up occasionally and we could see back into Glen Spean

Coming back down - Loch a Bhealaich Leamhain, and the start of Beinn a Chlachair - for another day

Glen Spean, and Creag Pitridh on the right.  Only another four miles or so to go now.

One of the hills.

Back at the crossroads.  Creag Pitridh on the left and Geal Charn on the right.  Time to go home.
