Stopped to do these on drive home from Edinburgh, nice way to break the journey. Saw a handful of other people in total during the day. Did Geal-charn first, though the Cairn I could see was the summit then realised it was still a fair bit further on. Nice walk over to A' Mharconaich next; if I'd been organised or had longer to do the walk, I'd have done the other 2 munros on this side of the A9 at the same time whilst I was along the ridge, but will have to do them another time I'm heading up/down to Edinburgh.
Odd place for a wee bridge over the burn after the descent down the nose of A' Mharconaich - absolutely no path on either side. Might have been better following the trodden route and crossing lower down rather than wading through vegetation aiming for the stand alone bridge.
Still, a nice walk, not the toughest way to bag a couple of munros.
