Moderate:Beinn Ghoblach & Cnoc A'Bhaid-Rallaich(Graham)
Details
If anyone fancies a lower level route,I'm doing this Graham/Marilyn combo on the Sunday.Regarded as a fine viewpoint for the Loch Broom area and visible from Ullapool.
TERRAIN
As usual with the Grahams it's unlikely to have a trail path,so it's a case of finding our own way round.From the descriptions I've read it's a tussocky,heather and peat terrain we negotiate.Couple of walk reports below provide some detail.
