870 Geal Charn

12/6/10 Dave, Gary and Peter. Direct route south from Carn na Farraidh. Some nice running on the descent, and the climb wasn't as bad as the previous two hills. Very nice on the top with short turf and views to Cairngorm, but cold, can't have been more than 5C. 2 hours to the top form the car, and we decided to head back rather than go on to Carn Bheadhai, which looked very close but would have added an hour to the trip. Good decision I think. Headed off to the north and saw an eagle flying below us in the corrie.
