great report,what a day you got!..we were up Ben Vorlich yesterday and it was blowing a gale, we could hardly stand at the summit. Decided not to attempt Stuc as it would have been madness in those conditions..we will return though! :D

Wonderful report, for me it always makes a day when we get blue skies and sunshine. I was hoping to visit Ben Vorlich in a couple of weeks, not sure if I am up to Stuc a'Chroin or not as have never done any climbing but it seems a waste to miss it out!

Is the car parking obvious?

Excellent rep and great pics. Thanks. As I was making my way through your story I was wondering how Ritchie would cope. Nice one though. Cheers.
