Parked in the car park at Moy and cycled in to the bridge above Strathossian. (13.9km). From there headed up the North side of Allt Feith Thuillgradually gaining height on rough ground until joining the overgrown stalkers path, and following it to its end above some crags. Then up some steep ground to gain the south ridge of Meall Garbh, the main objective of the day. The weather was improving but not quickly so headed round to Stob Coire Sgriodain, the initial part of the ridge from top 924 to beyond top 958 was rough and stony , but the climb up to the summit was on easy grass. Reversed course and in what seemed no time was ascending Chno Dearg, initially on an atv track, then just up the short grass to the large cairn. By this time the clouds were clearing, so headed NE to clear steep ground hten SE to hit the Ossian road and a return to the bike. took the right hand opion to pass south of Meall Luidh Mor, and was soon back at the car. An interesting alternative way to do these Munros, mainly to get the Munro top.
