Good stuff, another 2 !! I had my first trip to Gen Coe yesterday and managed a Munro, a Munro Top and a Corbett. Long day but Glen Coe was stunning.

Well done Derek, sounds good. Any photos???

We had managed to evade the rain all day but the sky was getting dark it was about 16.00 ish.

Since you seem to have evaded the rain, I feel my chuckles at your misfortune were wasted now.

You're a sick man Frogwell!!! First you insult Scotland's oldest royal burgh and then laugh at its inhabitants getting soaked!!! Don't feel so bad now about spearing many of your amphibian brethern!!!

One tries

Another one to add to the list, think I should just stay in Killin for a week with all the hills around there.
Great report

Great idea Allan. I didn't realise how big Killin was. Looks like a brill place for a holiday, plenty of pubs and shops- enjoy!

Another enjoyable read and interesting title polly (missed it first time round due to holidays and I don't have a smart phone thingy for going online). Glen Lochay approach certainly gives you the views - I did the other standard approach from Auchessan in Glen Dochart in the south despite the reports of bogs - an enjoyable walk with good views all round - cheers

Thanks Rockhopper. I was on Ben Challum on Sunday and it was a real bogfest!!! If we were in 'It's a Knockout' I would definitely have played my Joker on finding the deepest bog to sink into- double points for me!!! Jeux Sans Frontiers here I come!!!

A timely report this Polly, as I still have these two to do. My 'local' hills are running a bit thin these days and I'm having to travel further and further to get ticks off the list. These two keep jumping out as blots on my munro map and I'm thinking I may need to do something about it, having done the other hills close by.

You may just have pursuaded me to push them up the list, but I'm not sure about finishing the day with pear and fennel soup though. A good pint or two would be more up my street
