A clockwise round of 1 Corbett, 2 Corbett tops, 2 Grahams (including Creag Ghuarach) and 1 Graham top from Loch Chiarain bothy finishing with the Leum Uilleim group of three. A very wet and somewhat windy day. On returning to bothy found both sets of stepping stones completely submerged so had a knee deep wet finish Just after finishing there was a rainbow striking the ground just before the river below the bothy - but no pot of gold! Quite a hard day in the conditions. Walked out the following day after more rain overnight. Could not cross stream on the Blackwater path or the higher path and had to follow it another kilometre above this to get a crossing. Any attempt lower down and I would have finished up in the reservoir!dickscroop05/06/2015
