Description

45mp gusts and heavy bursts of rain kept us on our toes.
Sarah hadn't done a big hill day for a while so I chose Ben Ledi.
Decided to approach from the north east to keep away from the main path and also to avoid the winds whilst ascending. It made for a much more enjoyable walk.
Really pleased with my pacing ams timing. Very accurate.
The gusts were definitely around the 40mph mark so we didn't hang around long on the top

Area : Loch Lomond to Strathyre (Ben More)

Ben Lomond (974m) and Ben More (1174m) sit on opposite sides of this area which stretches from Loch Lomond to the western end of Loch Earn. There are two distinct sections, to the north and south of Glen Voil, with the remaining peaks sitting to the south of Loch Katrine. Access to the majority of the hills in this area is commonly from Crianlarich, Aberfoyle or Callander.
