I returned to climb this hill after skipping it on Easter Friday after I had climbed Beinn Dorain with my grandson.
Don't think I can add any great insight to this hill, which I'm sure is well known to most members. Only to say that, on this particularly glorious day, when I found myself alone on the most western of the three summits, overlooking Loch Tulla and the A82 road and the curve that begins the climb (or descent) to (or from) Rannoch Moor, taking in Ben Nevis, Stob Ghabhar and so many other mountains visible in all directions, using Flightradar24 to identify the planes flying overhead in the clear blue sky, I COULD HAVE HAPPILY SAT THERE ALL DAY!. HEAVEN :D !!!
