A’ Ghlas-bheinn 23 May 2019
A cloudy and quite windy day, with the cloud down on the summits, but dry at least and the cloud lifted a little during the day, from 600m to about 750m. The route started at Morvich, and wended its way up the Glen through birch woods and up onto the open hill, as far as the Gates of Affric where the path steepened and ascended a couple of steep rocky sections, before traversing the bumps and undulations of the summit plateau, eventually leading to the cairn at the northern end at 3,012’. Dramatic views through the shifting cloud of both the summit cone and of the western end of Glen Affric. The weather was inclement enough to make the walk a bit bit of a challenge, without being dangerous, the path being obvious right to the summit itself. Munro #227.
