Drove through Glencoe village and over the Ballachulish bridge and along the B863 on the North side of Loch Leven to a parking spot just beyond Callert House, where there is a track going up through the trees to the open hillside

I need to stick these two in the memory banks Rod - looks like a good short day - 3hrs seems pretty quick for the distance/amount of ascent - you been in the gym while you've been quiet???

Ha ha now there's a thought, gym, no just after the two previous hill days getting fitter again in fact 3hrs with5mins to spare. Good ground conditions especially on the Corbett made for fast moving a fine wee hill, but slightly annoyed I like JC missed out on the Sub2000er on the North. Guess you will be the first to do the three

Been up a couple of times from Mamore Lodge so interesting to see from the other end. A fine hill I think.

I agree, a lovely wee hill with bonus views from the top. To walk the full length of the ridge on a fine day would be awesome
