Ardverikie and Ben Alder
10th September 2009 to 12th September 2009

For the final three days of my trip, I enjoyed excellent sunny weather for an expedition through the hills between Glen Spean and Loch Ericht, staying in the Culra bothy. This included five new Munros for me, and repeat ascents of two that I'd done before. At the end of the trip, my Munro total stood at 131.
