Campervan trip 020 3rd 2010.
A clear day, fresh but dry. From our WC at Mam Ratagan we drove to Lundie NH144103.
I followed the stalkers' track up to 203 Carn Ghluasaid, and by passing the top at 998 followed the ridge to the next Munro 44 Sgurr nan Conbhairean and its top Drochaid an Tuill Easaich. Then on to 133 Sail Chaorainn and continued to the centre top Carn na Coire Mheadhoin which is only 1m lower than the Munro. I then returned to the bealach NH129147 and traversed around the west side of munro 44 Sgurr nan Conbhairean to the bealach at NH124135. This was not a good decision; it would have been better to go back to the munro 44 summit and follow the ridge down. From the bealach ascended to the top 1001m and S over Meall Breac to return to the main trod (old military road) for the return to the car park.
When crossing the Alt Coire Lair both dogs were in for a clean up swim and when I continued Dot was not with me. I return after a short distance to find her struggling to get out of the water. A helping hand sorted her and she was on her way again.
On to Fort William which was very busy for shopping and then Glen Nevis camp site for 3 nights.
