Ptarmigan Meet Glen Clova

(29.3.2015) Ben Tirran, 17km, 5hrs 45min

Dropped off the B955 at Wheen by the club bus and headed NW up the landrover track up to Rough Craig 529m. From here we took the path NE up to Loch Wharral and then up to the summit of Ben Tirran 896m. Made our way West over the plateau curving around the craigs of Loch Wharrel over to Green Hill 870m then over to Boustie Lay 876m. The going was hard to Boustie Lay over peat hags and really soft snow. From here we headed SE above Corrie of Clova and followed the corrie around and descended South via The Snub down by Loch Brandy to the Glen Clova Hotel. The weather was windy, overcast but clear with a rain shower near the descent.
