Never the most exciting of Hills but always a good one to warm up on for the rest of the year or as a first Munro for the beginner. Almost impossible to get lost on (Not an excuse for not taking map & compass) and some great views frrom the summit, when it's clear. Today was fine until just below the summit, which was covered on low cloud but what yo could see was, as usual outstanding. Fairly good time but using it as a 'Beat Up' for Run Balmoral Trail 15 so brakes were off and full steam ahead.
