Thursday and Friday of work due to the Open golf. Was going to wildcamp for these but weather forecast (and was) for high wind and heavy rain overnight Thursday into Friday made me abandon that plan.

Cycled to Culra from Dalwhinnie in ~70min, did the Carn Dearg ridge of four and decided I had sufficient time/energy to to Ben Alder&Beinn Bheoil too! The walk part took 8hr30min (right on Naismith!). Then cycled out to Dalwhinnie in ~50min, arriving at 7.20pm.

Didn't see anyone else on the hills!
