Parked up at Creag Meagaidh car park for the night and drove to start point in the morning. Easy enough walk through the woods to start before crossing a stile and heading up the hill, sometimes a path, mostly not.

Bit of a trudge but nice views. Still a bit of corniced snow but easily avoided.

There is a lot of down before going up the next one and then more trudging down on not much path.

Not the most memorable of munros but weather was decent and glad to get these ticked off 158 & 159 for me!

River was easy enough to cross though.
