Drove down to the braes of Balquhidder very wet start that more or less persisted all walk. despite poor visibility we found the rather obscure top with no great difficulty. Fairly quick descent and as usual the weather picked up as we left. traffic jam outside Callander turns out that the A 82 Loch Lomond road was closed due to a smash. At the Laide Inn helped a young distressed girl by taking her back to Stirling she had been trying all day to get back to the Mull of Kintyre.
