I'm thinking of going up the Ptarmigan Ridge route again with both my dogs, but not going all the way to the top of Ben Lomond. Fly wouldn't be able to do the last bit up to the summit, but she should be able to manage the walk to the bottom of the steep climb or at least the lochan, and we can just head back from there. Still get some good views without reaching the top afterall! :D
