The Cobbler and his wife

Plan was to run up the trail to the Cobbler, then Narnain, returning via a new hill for me, A'Chrois. We climbed through the south eastern corrie to the Cobblers central summit, didn't thread the needle, again.



Ran down the back stairs to Bealach a Mhaim and up the short pull to Narnains broad flat top. Cloud too low for the untried ridge to A'Chrois and we ran back to the Bealach then past the Narnain Boulders, trotting down the path took a fall and tried to smash a rock with my knee, limped back to Succoth. Some more pictures here.

Beinn an Lochain and Ben Bowie

First long run in a while, ran from the RandB Thankful car park past Loch Restil crossing tussocky ground to join the path that follows the NE Ridge to the double summit.



Cloud well above the tops, views to Jura.

Returned the same way, a lot of walking today, finishing a bit over two hours, only a couple of people out today. More photos here. Sunday, more runnable, Stoneymollan to Ben Bowie and back, late afternoon run with plenty of photo/rest stops.



Finishing in just under three hours. More photos here.
