Camped with friends near Allt Horn at 400m 335454. In the morning it was misty and damp so we stayed late in the tents. We eventually left at 11:00 and navigated with compass to Lochan na Faoileige and Meall Aoghais, to the 757m summit of Arkle and then to the 787m summit. The last part is narrow and rocky although the summit area is flat. It was very windy, but did not rain. We went back to the lowest point of the ridge to point 757m and descended a gully, roughly southwards. | pwbellarby | 18/05/1997 |
