From sharp bend near mast. Along track then down to Errochty track. Steeply up the SE shoulder. Visited 3 possible tops. While descending NW towards Loch Chon I meet a friendly gamekeeper who told me there was a pony path up from L Errochty.chrisbien29/05/2023

From NN 72040 62904 on minor road south of Trinafour. Doing several hills in the area. From the east over wet ground to near Loch Con and then to the top. It was nicer going down the SW ridge to the reservoir and the road.Alan Moore24/04/2016
