Garbh Bheinn - Ardgour

Full Report & Pictures

One of the classic Corbetts, I have often admired this hill when crossing the Ballachulish bridge so was well pleased to have such a fine day to climb it. Yesterdays walk had made my bad back / hip thing a lot worse, so much so that I was unable to get my boot lases tied until half way up. The view from the top and later the swim in an ice cold Loch Linnhe has now seemed to of cured the problem.

Beinn Udlaidh & Beinn Bhreac-liath

A varied but always interesting walk round a deep forbidding coire. Beinn Udlaidh has the feel of a much big hill, and the summit plateua of Beinn Bhreac-liath is an absolute joy to traverse.
