57 - from Dalrigh. 3rd Munro of the walk. Long way down from Ben Oss, then traversed round the back of Ben Lui. A real ankle-shredding grind, very unpleasant. Left heavy rucksack in the pass for the last pull. Clear views in all direction, but otherwise unremarkable. | huwthomas | 28/07/2023 |

From Dalrigh. Up track to Cononish. Direct ascent of Beinn Dubhchraig, then Ben Oss, Ben Lui and out to Beinn a' Chleibh. Followed the path down to the forest, and contoured back around Ben Lui and down the valley before picking up the track back. Clear on Dubhchraig but cloud dropped onto the tops after that. Solo. | meltdiceburg | 22/08/2022 |
OMC Day Meet: Parked at Glen Lochy forestry car park, took wellies for the burn crossing, stashed them in the bushes. 13 folk there, the group quickly split in two based on speed and intentions, as half the group wanted to do the four munros, my slower group were happy with Beinn a' Chleibh and Ben Lui. 
We went up Beinn a' Chleibh first, intermittent views as the mist cleared and then was backfilled. My right knee was painful descending back to the saddle, despite a support band. Once a top Ben Lui, there was discussion about which top was higher (south one) we did both though. 
Descent was worse due to knee, followed stone path below the track, which we missed on the ascent, 07:30hrs all in. | chillyman8 | 21/08/2022 |

Ben Lui and Beinn a' Chleibh as per Walkhighlands route. Easy dry-feet river crossing thanks to recent dry spell but path up through the trees still very muddy. | TRG318 | 21/07/2021 |
