Really nice sunny day! Picked up Gavin at Hunter's Tryst and we drove up to the start point set out at 8.20am. Ben Vorlich was straightforward but I had to talk Gavin into the scamble up Stuc a'Chroin - but we managed it in the end :-)
Great views from both summits. Back to car just after 1.50pm and made it back to Edinburgh before the rush - ideal!
Had climbed Ben Vorlich years ago (with Ros and Jane on 26/08/2007) but Stuc a'Chroin was Munro 29 for me.
