From Ben Tirran, then down the good path to the hotel. A weird summit. An ancient landslip created a long shelf along the edge of the plateau, a couple of metres below the summit, with some big fissures. And there seems to have been a much more recent big landslip in one place just north of the summt.Pete R22/08/2020
