I set off early from Dumbarton at 6.50 on this beautiful Easter day clear blue skyies and snowcapped hills. I arrived in Glen Etive and parked opposite the entrance for Coiletir I had climbed Ben Starav a number of years ago in the summer time. The plan was to do Albannaich and Meall nan Eun but the day was rather spoiled by Zach disappearing during my coffee break when we were an hour into the walk. I spent some time looking for him but eventually went on to the first top then retraced my route back to the car in the hope of finding Zach. When I eventually got back to the car he was waiting for me. Last time I take him.
