Went with EJ and Tom. Camped near Carn an Fheidh on Friday night, my first proper wild camp. A bit of light rain on the way up but beautiful lighting as the sun was setting with the light streaming through the clouds. Some mist in the morning but it cleared up for a bit with good views, very remote feeling location. Saw golden plover, pipits, a fox, red deer and 2 hawks (possible kestrel/ hen harrier? - hovering). Left our tents in the morning to go to the summit and picked them up on the way back - great experience :D
