Meltwater channels have separated off a spur of the great
Caiplich plateau adding Cnap Chaochan Aitinn to the list.
Not the most popular of areas , north of Glen Avon , comprising
of the usual heather and bog. Deep glens like the Ailnack Gorge
and Glen Loin give some character, sadly I was unable to visit
the gorge due to the wind.
The summit is accessable by track and carries some ironmongery
- estate radio I think.
We ran into a hind stalking party, but they were happy with
our route and bagged two hinds near us anyway. They do were blown
off and gave us a lift down after our summit visit. Usual friendly
estate staff - thanks!
The wind was tough, but this was one of the calmer days of
the winter for me.
