On Top of Drumochter on a round of 4

[Grisu]

Well, I definitely wasn't running like @Amoveritas one day later, so it took me a little bit longer than him, but the weather was fairly good this day, apart from the first munro when reaching the plateau, I got right into the predicted weather.
But it didn't take long and the rain stopped and soon the mist lifted, too, so the rest of the day was just fine. Only the wind was quite strong in some places but the sun got stronger and warmer throughout the day.
At the wide bealach I met a women at a windshelter cairn who was waiting for her friend to come down from Geal-charn. She had already done this munro, so she had come up the track. We had a little chat about our plans of day and it turned out that they, too, intended to do the round with all four munros.
So we regularly met again on each summit. At the end they kindly offered me a lift back to the car park at Balsporran Cottages - THANKS a LOT for this
It is a very nice and enjoyable circuit. Although a long walk it is really worth to combine the two walks

The start of the walk from Balsporran Cottages - it is alwasy nice to have a sign!

Sheep is watching me closely.

Only one cairn and a half is left of the ,,road of cairn"

Meeting the clag right in time.

Loch Ericht veiled by wafts of mist

But soon the mist lifted, only Ben Alder kept itself mysteriously in clouds.

... and the next two munros still were hidden in mist.

nice staircase

Junction: for A' Mharonaich turn left, for Beinn Udlamain turn right or go straight ahead when you come from A' Mharonaich.

Just follow the path, supported by a line of fenceposts

bealach at the head of Coire Dhomhain

long slope but nice walking on soft heathery and mossy ground

Nice path like a red carpet leading to the final destination
