Another beautiful day for walking...Although preperations werent perfect for walking having attended a friends wedding the day before (consuming some alcohol) conditions were perfect for a Sunday stroll up Ben Vorlich no.2.. My companion was struggling more than i was with the previous evenings refreshments..

This was a tough walk through long grass and thick heather with no obvious tracks for most of the way...Met someone i knew from Braco as they decended from the top with their 2 dogs..

As we reached the peak snow started falling with it covering the summit very quickly. The skies were clear with a great view of Loch Lomond..Disaster as i discovered that i hadnt brought my camera along.....ahhh!! A picture was taken by my companion on there mobile phone but just not the same..Iwill learn from this mistake.. Worth climbing this hill again just for the views..
