A wet, windy, wild and wickedly funny day out with Gill C. :D

An eventful adventure over to Mheadhoin via the not very sheltering stone :shock:

And then dropping down northeast from the summit, a wee cheeky wade across the Loch Avon outlet and up to the Saddle and eventually up to Cairn Gorm for number 130 for Gill.

A longish day but definitely one I would repeat especially with such fabulous company :D :D
