Description

Ben Arthur from Arrochar. Group of 2. Up the East Face and down to the Bealach below Beinn Ime. Snowline at 450/500m but frozen terrain from the car park in minus 7 temps.
Snow depth increasing with height but well-consolidated after a severe overnight freeze. Great visi and little wind.

Area : Inveraray to Crianlarich (Ben Lui)

From the Arrochar Alps to Ben Lui, this area is home to nine Munros. Half of the peaks in the area are within the boundaries of the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park, while the others lie to the west. The three summits of The Cobbler (884m) contain some of the best climbing in the Southern Highlands while Ben Lui in winter looks positively Alpine. Access is relatively straightforward from the A83, A82 or A85.
