always fancied the brack but just never got round to it

[dooterbang]

very nice dooter and good timing - have been looking at the corbetts in this area for when I eventually manage to get back out again (will soon have been 2 mths ! )

Thats a long time to be away from our medicine....quicker you get out the better

Yes , Woodsy boy was over on Ben Lomond with The Mrs and the dog but no Bucky i'm afraid.
Just loads of good clean fresh air , great views then a lovely bowl of soup in the Rowerdennan Hotel.
A cracking wee day out the same as yourselves.

Hi, Dooterbang, looks like some more mountain porn?... This time with an addition of booze-party on the mountain top. An alternative definition to "having great fun on the hills".
We're hoping for some hillwalking during the New Year holidays as well... Weather forecast's so-so, but I keep my fingers crossed.

Great day out Doots. I went up the path for the Brack with my kids & had to give my youngest a piggy back up & down the steep bit at the begining lol

Nice report Paul- short and sweet, just like your........... cocktails

No problems with gay sheep or sheepish gays on this one?

Enjoyed that - I'm looking forward to going back to the whole Arrochar area at some point

I must start looking at all the corbetts in this area/surrounding area. Im doing the cobbler the mora with friends to take in the new year

Nice report. I've wanted to do the Brack for a while. The day you did this one I was on the train through Arrochar wondering when I'll get up it.

Am I right in thinking you ascended the north side of The Brack? And you say there is a signposted route this way? I've never seen it done this way, but I'm keen to do it form the north, which seems like a better way to get back to the car than retrace south into that other valley you took.

Fairly certain you weren't in Elephant Gully which gets summer Difficult and winter III/IV in the guidebook so rather more than an easy snow plod in winter conditions.
