7.35am to 9.20pm, 38.5km, 1830m. A long day!
Spittle of Glenmuick, Meikle Pap, Little Pap, Cuidhe Crom, Cac Carn Mor, Cac Carn Beag, Meall Coire Na Saobhaidhe, Creag A'ghlas-Uillt, Top Of Eagle's Rock, Carn a'Choire Bhoidheach, Carn An T-Sagairt Beag, Carn An T-Sagairt Mor, Fafernie, Cairn Bannoch, Cairn Of Gowal, Craig Of Gowal, Broad Cairn, Sandy's Seat, Loch Mnick, Spittal of Glenmuick.
A long day with patchy low cloud at the start and sunshine at the end. Short of water at Broad Cairn, should have made a detour to refill again. Felt the pace was good for such a long day, though the walk out felt long. found that stopping every couple of hours in the afternoon to get the boots off helped loads with my right foot. Longest day that I have done in a while!
