Parked at walkers Car park by Holl reservoir with a view to doing all 3 Marilyns here. Followed footpaths to East Lomond first via Gowk Stone and old limekilns and then took the standard motorway across to West Lomond. Intention then was to descend into Glen Vale and ascend Bishop Hill to complete the round. Would work but we abandoned at Glen Vale and the weather conditions were becoming more and more miserable.sarahk22/01/2022
