Canoed 8km up Loch Mullardoch into a stiff westerly, that saw the odd wave breaking over the bows, there is a very nice looking bothy, but all locked up, we pitched our tent on the foreshore and huddled round a fire, we had brought in a bag of logs, the beauty of canoe transport. The next day dawned fine, the wind had dropped, fresh snow on the tops, roaring stags and not a another person around. Negotiated the peat bog before ascending An Socach, we headed round to An Riabhachan, with views stretching to Torridon, south to Glen Affric and west towards the sea. It doesn't get much better. A brief swim on the way back down and a much easier paddle back to civilisation.
