Good paths on ridge continued over Creag Bhreac to Glas Tulaichean avoiding all peat hags. Very defined path then, fainter over Glas Tulaichean N top, to Carn an Righ. Good traverse path, fading slightly in places, skirting Mam na Carn to Beinn Iutharn Mhor. Back over Mam na Carn on ok path to Beinn Iutharn Bheag. Steep descent direct from summit, S/SE to pick up bits of path round E edge of Loch nan Eun. Great path from waterfalls out. Despite a wet July, very dry underfoot.

| Absolutely epic weekend, on Saturday I got my first Munro since November 2020, hiked in and camped near a picturesque loch and got another Munro on the Sunday. The tent was a total failure (groundsheet let water in each time you touched it) and I’ll need to buy a new / warmer sleeping bag, but all in, a very good weekend. I set off from the Spittal of Glenshee church at 11:10 on Saturday 15th May and hiked up the north side of Gleann Taitneach to Loch nan Eun, where I found a boggy bit of ground for my tent. I should of kept looking for better spot, but I wanted to crack with the hills. I then headed north for the two Munro tops of Beinn Lutharn Bheag (953m) and Mam nan Carn (986m), there were some nice views from the first, but by the time I got to Mam nan Carn, the mist had set in. This was followed by the first Munro, Beinn Lutharn Mhor (1045m) at 17:45 and nice views north to the snow covered Cairngorms, I was back at the tent for 19:30. On Sunday 16th May, I headed for the Munro | chillyman8 | 15/05/2021 |
