"Topping" Bank Holiday walk !

Still on a Top bagging quest , I decided to aim for 5 Tops on three Munros which did rather result in a sort of "Gavin-esque" type of outing culminating in a route of 34.5k !

One of the Tops, Tom Dubh was described by Irvine Butterfield in his "High Mountains" book as "the most meaningless Top in all Britain", but on a fine day it was a good walk. However after a slow trudge up to the Braeriach summit, my effort was rewarded. Two photos here, one of the cornicing around the An Garbh Coire on Breariach, the other a distant shot of Ben Macdui for those who are planning to go on the Club outing later this month.

After that a fabulous walk to take in my 3 remaining Tops on Sgor Gaoith, all in glorious weather. Truly an outing to remember.
