20.10.09) Ben Vorlich, Loch Earn (985m, 3hours 30 min
Took a couple of guys up from college up Ben Vorlich. Followed the path up from ardvorlich house into glen vorlich then up the path on the ridge towards the summit. On the way up Fraser commented that this path would be great for taking the bike. Sure enough he returned a few days later to bike Ben Vorlich. The weather was overcast with mist and fog towards the summit. Around 700m there were ferocious gusts 40-50mph blowing north easterly and a cold wind chill which made walking difficult. Continued on to the summit with visibility clear then misty. Returned via the same way. |
