With M. Poor start with rain hammering as we drove up & intermittent on the walk up Glen Cononish. Still misty up NW ridge but cleared at top. We continued over Ben Oss & Dubhcraig. 4 ptarmigan on Ben Lui descent, lots of yellow saxifrage & a mountain hare on Ben Oss. Only 2 humans seen.

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.
