Another week off for me, while Scoob's still on furlough... so we figured we'd try to get this short walk in before the forecast rain arrived :) Instead, this was a test for our new water-resistant wind jackets :roll: :lol:

Looking back - started with a short road walk then followed this track most of the way up

Meall Reamhar - we reached the cairn first but came over to the trig too (cairn's definitely higher, up on the right)

We followed the shoulder around, passing lots of wild strawberry plants (didn't notice any fruit)

Crossing Am Bodach with Loch Freuchie in the distance; the rain was on to stay by now

Heading in to the driving rain now, looping back down to the car (jackets held up fairly well although we both had a damp belly!)

Our stats; I'm recording the average for our ascents this time (they've been fairly close recently too)
