Second Hump of the day, from a start at the viewpoint car park. The stile looked promising until closer examination revealed its crumbling status, so I started with an awkward climb over the deer fence. The rest was a mix of steep but tolerable terrain then a long plod over rough moorland. Lovely stone built trig and extensive views, Liathach very fine seen in its end on profileColin Crawford20/06/2023
