Clare & Skye - not the fastest - but a sunny day nevertheless. A bit of a faff getting past the farm at Achalader - good car park - rubish routing. Followed the railway tracks in - historic.Scmccabe 25/04/2021

Had a cracking day, on the hills with Nicky Creadland bagging two Munros; Beinn Achaladair (1038m) and Beinn a’ Chreachain (1081m) and the two subsidiary Munro Tops. Accessed from Achallader Farm off the A82 just north of Bridge of Orchy, it started a bit misty and the midges were out in force, but they had fled and the sun had come out by the time we reached the south Top of Beinn Achaladair. The views down to Loch Tulla and across Rannoch Moor were stunning, we had a slight confusion on the summit of Beinn Achaladair, as the summit photo was taken at the cairn at 1036m, rather than the actually summit at 1038m, but as we had walked over the summit, we still bagged the Munro. While ascending Beinn a’ Chreachain the mist came in, which denied us a view, but since we had already been spoilt with the views, I’m not complaining, 09:15 hours all in.chillyman819/08/2020
