Gleann Einich - Angel's Peak - Braeriach - Gleann Einich.

Ascended Braerich plateau via NW facing, snow covered burn and then onto Angel?s Peak via the Wells of Dee. Dumped ski boots and skis approx 1.5km from Angel Peak.

Left Jungle to ski off one of the north faces below Angel Peak while I bagged the summit(saw from afar some canine activity near where I had left my ski gear so didn?t on the peak too long. Found my boots eventually - doggy obviously had a good time chewing up my boots and filling them with snow!) Met up with Jungle at Braerich via the cirque, while he ascended Braerich from the west of Stob Choire Etchachan having crossed An Garbh Choire at about 2600ft.

Skirted around Loch Coire an Lochan on the descent of Braeriach and back to Gleann Einich via the same burn.

Scorchio!

30-40 min climb to get to the burn from Gleann Einich. Good snow cover on the plateau, cover complete to Braeriach if you are prepared to skirt around the cornices.

Some frighteningly steep descents still available off the cirque between Braerich and Angel Peak
