Hiked from Black Bridge by A835 (long hike) Amazing views over StrathVaich and Loch Vaich itself. Got lucky with weather and ground hard so good for walking.

In all its glory!

My Corbett #61, Rosie's 60th. Bright sunny walk up Loch Vaich to Lubachlaggan and straightforward ascent up SW shoulder. Returned via southern top 772m. Glorious day, fantastic views.

Visited this hill along with Carn Ban on a beautiful spring day. Noted that windfarms could be seen in all directions from both summits. A poorly exposed photo iof cairn and trig is not worth uploading.
