Devil’s Point 10 Aug 2020

A superb day accessing the Cairngorms from the south, a long approach ended by Corrour, then an ascent of the steep slopes behind the bothy onto the ridge of Devil's Point and the summit cairn poised over a steep drop at 3,294'. Views north to Braeriach and Cairn Toul, and east across the Lairig to Cairngorm. he still conditions meant that midges were troublesome even by the cairn. On the walk out the cloud lifted and the sun increasingly illuminated the heather slopes along the glen and the shapely peak just conquered. Munro #249.
