Eastern Cairngorms Backpack

Last weekend, Colin and I spent a windy two and a half days backpacking in the eastern Cairngorms, where we managed to climb four Munros, two Munro tops, see relatively few other people, cross a few rivers, wild camp, stay in a bothy and drink some whisky!  It was a good trip and it's likely to be my last backpack of the year, but I've got plenty of plans in my head for next year! (including the round of Loch Mullardoch)

This post is an index on my blog posts on the trip, which I have updated to include maps of our routes, and there's also a link to my photos.
