Started out in fog today, but weather soon cleared Parked at Laggan Locks, crossed over from here:
Then a quick cycle to the post at the start of the forestry track:
This was fairly steep initially, but height gained quickly. Out of the trees:
Back down:
Bealach soon came into view. Gets a bit icy on the path further up:
From the bealach, zig zag path up a grassy hill to Sron a'Choire Ghairbh:
Cairn, looking over to windfarm:
North, Kintail:
West, towards Knoydart:
Next hill, Meall na Teanga, looks a bit more interesting, Ben Nevis in background:
Back down to the icy bealach:
Path goes around Meall Dubh to Meall na Teanga:
Snow was firm but deep footsteps had been left from when it was soft, so could use these as steps. Towards the top:
Meall Coire Lochain:
Loch Lochy, at the back of the queue when they were handing out loch names:
Gulvain, Sgurr Thuilm direction:
West:
Kintail:
Zig Zag path up Sron a'Choire Ghairbh:
More pics on the way back to the bealach:
And back down to the trees:
There were a couple of bikes left at the bealach now, so it's obviously possible - not for me though Back down the path then an easy coast back to the car
