Distance: 7km | Elevation: 442m
Plan was to do a lovely circular walk from Glen Affric up the NE ridge of Mullach Fraoch-choire along to Bealach Choire á Chait and down Gleann na Ciche. OS map showed a path.. but there was only thick heather and bog and fencing. Hard going and Alfie showed me his right front leg twice - which at 600m altitiude was enought to persuade me to abandon. Would have been a very long way round..Glen Affric: A ridge too far
