A great trip to Glen Affric took place the other weekend, with Strawberry Cottage providing an excellent base to tackle the adjacent hills.

Cold winds did little to discourage activities on the Saturday, with most people taking in at least 3 of the 4 Munros of Mam Sodhail, Carn Eige, Beinn Fhionnlaidh, and An Socach.
Denis tackled An Tudair Beag, while Duncan, Juliet and Calum gave the legs a good old stretch on a 13 hour stomp to Sgurr nan Ceathreamhnan and back. All efforts were rewarded back at the cottage with a fine feast of hot food and a fleeting visit from a barn owl.

Sunday provided a beautifully crisp autumnal morning, with cracking views across the hills of the glen, and the weather not seriously deteriorating until later in the afternoon.

Beinn Mheadhoin, Toll Creagach and fixing a flat tyre were among the objectives of the day before folk headed for home.
