Time to draw once more upon the wealth of knowledge and experience that is this forum!
I've still got a few hills yet to claim in my "home" territory round the mounth and have constructed as many routes as possible to avoid the usual "bag as many in one go" approaches which I often find miss some of the best features.
I've climbed Mayar twice from the usual, wonderful Corrie Fee approach but both times missed out on Driesh because of my walking partners, so if possible I'd like to grab Driesh from a different approach. I know it can be done from Glen Prosen, and since that's the only Angus glen I've yet to explore that seems the perfect solution. I'd like to combine it however with some of the ridge that divides glens Prosen and Clova - that always looked to be quite tantalising when driving down the latter.
My questions are -
1) What is the parking like at the end of the public road in Glen Prosen; and
2) Any pointers on how best to get from there up to the aforementioned ridge (ideally some way to the south east so I can enjoy the ridge a little en route to Driesh? I've plotted a route that seems to head up a track past Cramie and then into the forest, before striking up onto the ridge. Has anyone done similar, or can spot anything that looks awry about this approach?
As always, any thoughts will be greatly appreciated! As a more unusual route, I might even break my recent TR silence and post the results up here once completed!
Thanks,
Stevie
