On Sunday morning we travelled to Newtonmore to walk up 2 Munros there; A' Chailleach and Carn Sgulain. It was a beautiful day, but the terrain became a nightmare, especially after we passed the bothy, below!
When we reached the summit of A' Chailleach we could easily see across to nearby Carn Sgulain, surely one of the most unassuming Munros around. You would never have guessed it was a Munro, just looking at it!
Below, looking back at A' Chailleach from Carn Sgulain!
Unfortunately, by this time we were eaily 7 or 8 kilometres form the car-park and had to walk back along a stream, the Allt a'Chaorainn, across a testing landscape, and despite how straight-forward it looked, this part of the journey was a real slog!
