Beinn Alligin + Sgurr Mor

Drove up on Thurs night & slept in car - becoming a regular thing now , too many miles to do it all in a single day. Me and Oskar , weather started out fabulously but once reaching the top of Coire nan Laogh was clagged in for much of the walk , met 2 guys at Sgurr na Tuaigh just before the fina...

Re: Camping near Coulags/Achnashellach

Re jmarkb - your map route.

That's the exact route I took in June `14 when I did these 3, I also stayed over the night before in the bothy.
But the drop back down to the bothy from Sgorr Ruadh via Bealach Mor was a lot rougher and harder than I thought it would be.
A wonderful area.

Re: Plans for 2017

I`ve 55 Munros left to compleat , so it looks as if I will hopefully get there - but not in 2017. Life gets in the way !
However in 2017 I do plan to go back to Skye, again on my Vespa - combining 2 hobbies into 1.
Also hoping to stay in more Bothies.

Re: Strathfarrar Gate Combination Request

I did these 4 from Inverchoran via Gleann Chorainn and the lovely Loch na Caoidhe - 28Km all in, I enjoyed it very much. No car park time issues at all, I slept over in the car at Loch Beannacharain - there`s a sizeable car park towards the end of the loch.
