Met Jen at Keith and she drove us to Loch Cluanie
Fantastic weatehr conditions of blue skies but chilly low down to start.
Started with the usual kintail steep ascent. Before we got to the first summit Jen asked if we could bag the top. sure thing
Unfortunately her nav was a little off and we ended up at the top just west of Sgurr nan conbhairean. 5k of no path and rough ground.
Still it was a nice dday so we just headed up A' Chralaig and enjoyed the views.
the pinacles after this were a little bit scrambly but nothing major, could see how people get caught out in winter though.
We made it to Mullach Fraoch-Choire and spent some time taking it in and eating lunch before heading down.
The walk out was pretty boggy but fine in the sun.
