19 June - A morning ascent of this outlier of the Fannichs, in clear but cool weather with a northerly wind. Tha ascent from Achnasheen is a gradual pull up the heathery, slightly boggy slopes but the summit (3,061') is on a ridge and gives a good view north and west, to Torridon, Fisherfield and the main Fannich range across the loch. The cloud was just brushing the tops of the highest visible peaks. In the afternoon, an amazing view from the plane of the West Highlands below, from Skye down to Glencoe. Beinn a'Bheithir, yesterday's ascent, was clearly visible above Loch Leven. My Munro total is now 32.
