Parking at Kilfinnan currently straight forward with new car park for contractors on the dam project. Biked to turn for path up to Munros the followed summit ridge round. Dam construction works visible when the cloud cleared! | BaggerGutt | 23/07/2023 |
A day and a bit with a bivi at 700 metres on Ben Tee. Could have finished it in the day but it was a nice evening and I had a good temperature inversion in the early morning. 
From Kilfinnan up first a track just west of the transmitter mast then straight up to ridge on very good ground. Bracken may be a problem later in the year. Over Meallan nan Dearcag, then a brilliant ridge in glorious sun over Sean Mheall, Sron a Choire Ghaibhe SE top, Sron a Choire Ghaibhe main top and on to Meall a' Choire Ghlais. Then down firstly north to the bealach. Did not like the look of the side of Ben Tee facing me and I had plenty of time so worked my way round to the easier ground of the east face, near to the normal route, to bivi. Comfortable night, morning temperature inversion, quickly up to ben Tee summit and back to the car for 9.00 am. Not impressed by the squelchy walk out, my ascent route was much pleasanter. | dickscroop | 03/06/2022 |
