Heres a few pics of our trip up Tom a' Choinich during a glorious July day this year. I also broke in my new bargain Scarpa SLM boots - a mere £81 from Go-outdoors - due to the fact Nevis Sports were offloading them for £90 I got a price match + a further 10% off.... for boots that were normally £200... happy days.
The 3 mile Walk along "Abhainn Gleann nam Fiadh"
Heading up "Allt Toll Easa"
The Top
In the 6/7 hours we were walking we met 4 people! We were supposed to camp in Glen Affric but we drove Inverness got a hotel and got pished instead... what a jolly!

Thanks - the Scarpas' are great but my feet were aching and I did get a couple of small blisters.
