Well being kind of new to this munro climbing thing
We decided to do this one as its generally classed as easy and we were going to do it a couple of weeks ago
but I twisted my ankle then the next week I was on call and finally a week later all was good and we were in the car park looking up at Beinn Ghlas.
This was when I heard the first warning signs " hey Wull that's a big mountain " yeah my mate was not up for this one
anyway cut a long story short he didn't even make it half way up Ghlas !!! "give me the keys to the car " was the cry.
After lots of moral support and when that didn't work ..abuse I gave him the keys and he headed back to the car.
I think we should have a page on this site for naming and shaming the lazy ones who talk the talk but cant walk the walk no pun intended .
So anyway I gave him the keys and carried on and as headed down the hill .
But as luck would have it I bumped into another guy and got chatting and we done the walk together cheers for the company Russell.
Anyway back to the walk Beinn Ghlas is a short but good walk and its not long before you are rising above most of the hills around you the views are great but I have to admit the best one is the view of the primary objective Ben Lawers.

- Ben Lawers from Beinn Ghlas
The summit of Beinn Ghlas is nothing to write home about so its a couple of pics and onto the Lawers which is well easy ...well for most.
When we were at the summit of the Lawers we saw 2 kids around 10\12 year old running up to the summit and once there they were shouting at there dad to hurry up ...he was nowhere in sight
.
anyway here is a couple of pics from the summit.
