Parked at the start of the mast track and followed it for a bit before angling up along the ridge to the top. Straight down to just south of the boat house then along the southern shore of Loch Con (shoreline, ATV track and animal tracks making it easier than expected). Climb up to Dearg a bit rougher. Direct line across to Sron Chon then down to the bridge. Angled up to the upper track and followed it back to the mast.StueyB07/08/2023
