Anti-clockwise route from Reindeer Centre. Very busy route to the bothy and the green lochan, surprisingly steep ascent path from the bothy but made for a quick ascent. Part way along the (also quick) descent, encountered a middle-aged couple sitting on the path with their back to me coming down.. she was completely topless! Bit too busy for that up here Mrs!

Just wanted to go to Ryvoan Pass from the Glenmore car park, but at the bothy we said: hey, how hard could it be? 
As it turned out, quite. But worth it. | bartongabor | 03/04/2021 |
