Another brilliant trig walk. Started from a layby in Glen Drynoch and went up over Broc Bheinn. Fairly long winded route but weather spectacular and nobody on the moor but me and a few deer

Savaged by the lady who lives not far away from where we parked at the broad entrance road to the Bealach Mor. You have been warned...

Up from the Bealach Mòr. Even on a dull day like today, its a great viewpoint. Lovely rocky summit
