Toll Creagach and Tom a'Choinich 2 May 2012
This was supposed to be an easier day after the previous 2 megadays, so was only 8 hrs ! We started from the River Affric, climbing the heathery southern slopes of Toll Creagach to the summit (3,458'). Again, perfect weather conditions with some lying snow. We crossed the bealach and then ascended the east ridge of Tom a'Choinich to the summit (3,645'), an enjoyable scramble to another amazing viewpoint in the sparkling sun, with the snow cover giving the peaks an alpine aspect - from Carn Eighe and the Affric giants, round Glen Shiel, to the distant Cairngorms and the Mullardoch hills that were shrouded in mist on the first day. Down for 7.30pm. Munros 2, total 75.
