Beinn Mhanach

11 miles, 800m ascent, 6 hours

A windy day was forecast with more snow, so we opted for a short outing with plenty of valley walking.  Beinn Mhanach fitted the bill and unbeknown to us several friends from the CRMC had the same thought.  We bumped in to them, but went our separate ways when they opted to bag the extra top.  The valley walk is enlivened by the spectacle of the railway viaduct and the frequent river crossings, but the main ascent is nothing but a trudge.  We managed to keep out of the cloud until near the top and it wasn't as windy as predicted.
