| A Four Tops (great band!) circular with Dave Chapman. Alighted the tender in the sea cut at the end of Gleann Mor then headed up the increasingly slabby Carnach. Over the gap to Carn Ghaltair then down her SE flank to capture Aird Phabach then Cnoc a' Ghlinne Mhoir. A great wee circuit that took around 70 minutes to complete. | summitter | 18/06/2023 |
