Great hills Hugh :D In fact, they're superb..........you'll enjoy them. I've currently got one eye on two of the Corbetts accessed from this Glen for the weekend - Bidein a'Chabair and Carn Mor. Haven't yet commenced "negotiations" with MrsR, so may not even be allowed.

You planning to take in Sgurr Mor as well Hugh or just the 3?

The 3 on their own are a challenge, hope you get better weather than I did :lol:
Take care on the roller coaster alongside Loch Arkaig, the road is like nothing else you will probably ever have driven on :roll:

Just checked the forecast Hugh and it's pants for that area this weekend!!! In fact between the visibility and wind speeds the hills are no longer a priority for me this weekend anywhere in Scotland unless far north on Sunday. Which is a no can do for you!! Sorry :(

If you're up in Glen Dessary, watch out for those packs of man-eating wild boar. :shock: http://www.walkhighlands.co.uk/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=64535
