Friday 31 January – Sunday 2 February 2025
Our weekend meet to the SMC Raeburn Hut, near Laggan, ended up being a somewhat elite gathering with many club members away skiing elsewhere.
Friday saw outings by Yasmin on Creag Beag (Kingussie) and myself on Creag Ruadh (Laggan) and the late arrival of 3 SMC folk, bolstering the hut number to 8!
An earlyish start on Saturday captured the clear morning but windy conditions with Chris, Moritz & Lilian bagging Geal Charn from Garva Bridge. Yasmin & myself managed Binnien Shios via a cycle into the wilds of Lochan Na h-Earba followed by the homely Laggan cafe. After substantial nosh in the hut we enjoyed a couple of games of Skull King!
The cloud was down more on Sunday with a fine drizzle in the air. Chris, Moritz & Lilian took in the East Drumochter munros en route home whilst Yasmin & myself headed for a cloud free Graham, cycling in from Loch Rannoch & also visiting the remote Duinish bothy.
