well, I managed both on one of the few decent days this summer, clear and dry all day (actually a little too warm for my liking). Ben Vorlich, as has been commented, is a fairly easy hill (it was a bit like a motorway going up, it was saturday and everyone and their dog was up there). Stuc a chroin was more interesting, the scramble up is a fairly easy one in good weather, i only had to use hands a few times, thought it would be a lot more tricky in the wet or in winter though. Getting to the bottom of the scramble requires picking your way for a short distance through the boulder field. Returned over Ben Our, cutting down through deep bracken to the path again.
