Has anyone done Mount Keen to Broad Cairn or BC To MK, Only these two left to do in that area. Thought that was doable any input appreciated. TA......

Looks like a long way across pretty grim peat hags and heathery terrain. Not worth the effort, I would say.

In winter on frozen snow? Still may fall into peat hags. Not done it, wouldn't want to.

Much more fun to go up mount keen from Glen Tanar which is gorgeous.

I second the Glen Tanar approach. The approach track is so good it is easy to cycle to the foot of the mountain..

Third on the Glen Tannar approach. Jen and I have done it both ways. Glen Tannar is lovely. If you go over the top and descend a bit there is a nice path traversing back around to the Tannar side. Marked as Mounth Rd on the map.
