Headed up to Newton more to do the Highlander-escape the redcoats duathlon. Had some time to kill the day before so thought I'd get a quick munro in. Carn Dearg fitted the bill. Visability wasn't great and due to a few days and nights of heavy rain the route was pretty boggy in places. Clouds cleared briefly near the to to revael vast sky and landscape. descended via Loch Dubh - always prefer a bit of a circular route rather than an out and back!
A'Chailleach and Carn Sgulain will need to wait for another day.
Warning
Please note that hillwalking when there is snow lying requires an ice-axe, crampons and the knowledge, experience and skill to use them correctly. Summer routes may not be viable or appropriate in winter. See winter information on our skills and safety pages for more information.
