Anti clockwise. Not that boggy on ascent, made use of new hydro tracks not shown on the map. Saw Golden Eagle diving as I was going up the glen. Traversing Being a Chroin was a highlight, going to both summits (north higher). Good sliding down both hills on snow patches. Following the road then WHW for the return to the car would saved me half an hour. Crossed to the east side of the railway and river too soon which was a boggy mistake.
