Beinn Eich

A truly stunning day. I cheekily drove up to the bridge just before Edentaggart and managed to get a space. This meant a quick ascent up on to Beinn Eich and as I climbed higher, the views were incredible. Initial views back to Loch Lomond were pretty but the main event was the fantastic vista from the top of Ben Lomond, Ben Lawers range, Stob Binnein and Ben More, the Cobbler and Ben Ime, which dominated proceedings. Ailsa Craig was also visible. The wind from the East was petrifying and I was glad of my balaclava and three layers. How I would have loved to go on and nab the remaining two Grahams here but I had promised Mrs P I would be back before noon. And so I was, after a tremendous day on the hill.
