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.
circuit of Ben Lomond via Ptarmigan Ridge as an `easy` day out with another Winter ML. Deep unconsolidated snow, and a bank of fog between 650 and 850m gave reasonably challenging conditions, and some significant accumulations of windslab on the steeper sections just below the summit required thoughtful route finding to ensure safe travel. Good day out.
