Done on way back to Inverness after a Lochcarron OC shift. Solo walk, damp, overcast day. Boggy areas on way up the hill, but easy terrain asides from that, straightforward munro. On the way down, crossed the burn and got on to the new hard track mentioned in a couple of recent walk reports to descend the last half on a dry surface.

(Not a long walk, so as the weather not too bad, stopped further east along the road to walk along a track to Loch Fannich and got views of the Fannichs and back up to Fionn Bhein)
