Parked passed the normal cairn near to generator station that appears to power TV aerial on south side of road.
Walked back to cairn and headed up usual advised route but it was very boggy and spent some time trying to avoid peat bogs. Up in 50 minutes though. Descended back down ridge slightly but then headed more directly down to road near to old wall. Going here is much better and this seems to be a much better route up and down for this wee Corbett. :wink:

I did this one on Sunday too.......up and down by the dry stone wall in an hour fifteen I think. Definitely not that boggy :wink: Combined the day with Oighreag over the road......which I thought was boggy :lol:
