Was ski touring there on the same day and didn't see one. Probably saw your foot prints which we followed for a bit, did you go down the wrong ridge for a bit?

That was Plan B, we couldn't get past a van that was stuck in the snow, so had no route on the GPS just had a map lol we just headed up, don't think anyone would have taken the route that we did. I think it must have fallen off somewhere in between meal Corranaich and Meall a' Choire Leith. looking back on photos I had it on the first summit but not on the second

Its a popular route so I hope it turns up.

For info, the two sections of the ridge that we didnt ski along (we like steep downhills!) were(approx) -
NN614410 to NN615414
&
NN615418 to NN616429
