Creag Pitridh and Geal Charn
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. |
