I followed the munro book and started from A93. However I went up via the track (the books route down) and did the two. I found Jocks Road descent down easy on the grass slopes as I couldn't find the path off. | Aristotle Chip | 20/01/2022 |

Walk in to do Tolmount and Tom Buidhe with John via Glen Doll along the Jock's Road - a really stunning walk and (IMO) far more interesting than the route starting from the A93 side. A cold 7am start, albeit with blue skies with some light cloud, but clouds got darker and lower as we progressed. We just got back to the Glen Doll car park as it started with the rain/hail - just under 5h 30m. | mproudfoot | 01/05/2021 |
