Boulder Field of Beinn Bhrotain - a photo on Flickriver

            Descending from the summit of Beinn Bhrotain to reach Monadh Mor we have to go directly down through this boulder field.  I have taken the image sidelong to give an idea of how steep and treacherous it is, especially when most of them wobble!!  To the far right we can see Cairn Toul, Britain's 4th highest peak, and to the left of it is Angels Peak, 2 summits for another day I think.

Beinn Bhrotain (pronounced Bane Vrottan meaning Hill of the Hound) stands at 1157 meters (3796 feet) and is the first of our Munros today.  Monadh Mor (pronounced Monnagh Mor meaning The Big Hill) is our second and final destination and stands at 1113 meters (3651 feet).  A short 5 mile cycle up Glen Dee gets us to the foot of the climb, then it's an 11 mile hike across rough and boggy ground to get there.  An epic 8.5 hours, largely un-pathed, time in the hills gets us back to the cars just before full dark falls!
