Sgor Gaoith, our second Cairngorm
Car park at the foot of Alt Ruraidh |
Once we got on the right path we were off |
And there is the wrong path down there, looks much easier. |

The next path we missed down on the left, with Carn Ban Mor and Carn Ban Beag behind |

|
Steep climb onto Geal Charn. |
Looking back down to where we were |
This is more like it, flattening out |
The way ahead, up to Meal Bhuide which is no longer a munro. |
A cairn, but not an important one |
Coming up Meal Bhuide's top, Geal Charn behind. |
Along the top to Sgoran Dubh Mor (another one that isn't a munro) |
|
Looking North from the top of Sgoran Dubh Mor |
|
And to the West, the hills we have just come over |
|
And South, to our target, Sgor Gaoith |
Seems to be getting further away! |
Loch Eanaich |
View back up to Sgoran Dubh Mor |
And this impressive cairn marks the top |
Impressed ? |
Now that is a bit better. |

And back down the Allt a Chrom-alltain that we meant to go up. |
And that is that, another hill ticked off, and a good day out nearly done. If only the pub had been open! |
