Some write off Fionn Beinn as a bad weather, short day, hill. I think the opposite, if a hill is relatively featureless, but in a wonderful area, do it when you get endless views. We were lucky, we did it as a "rest day" during one of the best weeks we've had in Scotland. Not much of a rest, the snow was knee deep at times, but the sky was a perfect deep blue and the views to die for.
