After some way the track enters a denser patch of forest and here the map and the reality seemed mysteriously to part company. I came to a T junction with a choice of heading left on a path towards the river or right on a track away from it. I could see nothing like this on the map and in the end I decided to head for the river. I was rewarded after a short while by seeing unmistakable signs of boots and bike tyres having passed this way before me, so I decided I was still on the right way for Auchlean. Once the path reached the river it turned north and stayed close to the east bank pretty much all the way to Auchlean Farm. Somewhere along this stretch I met a TGO Challenger who asked me if there was "still a bothy in Glen Feshie?". Unfortunately I had no idea, but I learned later that in fact there is. I only hope the poor soul found it in the end!
