Released 6 yrs ago (7/23/2005 UTC) at Ben Alder (near Dalwhinnie) in Newtonmore, Scotland United Kingdom WILD RELEASE NOTES: A wonderful day on this majestic mountain, which is one of the more remote of the Munros. We enjoyed the relatively easy cycle in from Dalwhinnie along the Land Rover track to Culra bothy. After dumping the bikes we set off on foot along the path beside the Allt a Chaoil-reidhe towards Beallach Beithe. Just before the loch we climbed the short Leachas ridge to gain the plateau. This was a pleasant easy ascent with a little easy scrambling near the top. The summit plateau seemed vast and featureless after such wonderful views on the approach, but by keeping to east and skirting the crags we kept the views to the east and south for longer. After reaching the summit cairn. We returned by the long Leachas, dropping down into the glen again about a mile SW of the bothy. Part of my Books on Bens project, see my bookshelf |
