Cruach Adrain
- Date:

The hardest part of this walk was not at all the fact that you climb 2 munros. It's the route finding to get on the right mountain! For some reason, even with the superb sunny weather and visibility, it took me a little while to figure out the way to get through the forest and onto Grey Height, the first hill which leads onto Cruach Ardrain. But I had all the time in the world, so it didn't matter too much. It was nice to get out onto open mountainside and be able to see where exactly I was though! It was a slightly colder day compared with the two previous days of walking, but it was mostly due to a little extra wind than a drop in air temperature. I wasn't so impressed by Cruach Ardrain itself; the route seemed nice enough, but it wasn't quite as aesthetically pleasing as the two neighbouring >>>
