Beinn a'Ghlo return Path.
A day rate project to try to repair as many sections as possible on the path on the Northern side of Cairn Liath leading down from the Bealach on the southern aspect.
This is a return route that was becoming popular both as new route but also as a means of retreating down of the plateau in bad weather towards a new machine built path running around the foot of Cairn Liath and back to where people parked cars or accessed the Beinn a'Ghlo range.
A very wet and boggy route through some very peaty areas and crossed by scree in a few places and collapses of the loose quartzite path in others.
Lots of new or adapted techniques were required here, not just due to the conditions but also due to the scarcity of materials.
