We started at inveruglas and headed towards the power station, from here we continued along the road towards the loch sloy dam with Ben vane towering on the left. When we got within a KM of the loch sloy dam we cut off up the slopes of Ben Vorlich the path was Brocken and sometimes there was no path but It continued up the hill. The path cuts off to the left before you get to the bealach, then you get to a few false tops until you reach a trig point, this infact is not the top. the summit is just beyond .

Fom the summit you gain great views of loch lomond, Aricar Alps and if you have good weather :lol: you
Can see Ben Nevis
