This was the two days I had most been looking forward to since the relaxation of lockdown. I had booked the Kylesku hotel for a couple of nights and would attempt both this Corbett then a couple of Munros in the Cuillins should the weather hold out. These two days will live long in my memory for all the right reasons. I left just before 0900 and waved Martha and Emma off - Martha had just gone back to school, was enjoying it and my wife was busy with a commission. I enjoyed the long drive North and eventually got to a warm NW Highlands for 1400. The lay-by for the start of this hill was full so I drove on another 100m and parked in tight to the road. From here, it was Factor 50 on and I headed off on the path, before encountering a young lady over from Austria, with her dog Tia. Really nice to chat but I had a hill to do! Quinag looked good with its head just in the clouds, as was Glas Bheinn initially. I made for the steep incline and a path of sorts wend its way into the gully. I met a family coming down who said they didn't get a view but did meet plenty of midges! I got to the summit in an hour and the views were splendid - right enough the midges were prevalent even at sub-800m. I decided to contour round and down past the loch to make a route of it. This was a most pleasant meander back to the car and I got back to the car for 1630. From here, it was a 10-minute drive to the hotel where I checked in, showered and had a lovely meal before an early night - due to the long 3.5 hour drive that I'd have to get to Glen Brittle for 0830. Another cracking wee Corbett.
