Arrochar in the sun

What a difference a week makes, another late start, sun sun sun, indecisive and went to Arrochar. Route was Glen Loin, over the stream then access the glen between Ime and Vane from the disappearing river, up through the glen and climb up Ime beside the gnarly ridge finishing with a quick down, up, down over Narnain. The 5 mile run up the Glen was hard in the heat, the trees keeping the breeze away. Nice run up to Lag Uaine beside the stream then a steep rocky climb into one of Ime's North facing corries, I even managed a bit of a run up towards the corrie rim. Made do with Ime's SE top before an easy jog down to Bealach a'Mhaim. Steady climb to Narnain's flat rocky summit before the 3000' in 2 mile descent back to the forest roads. Sweat and stoor washed off in the Jacuzzi, finished 12 miles with 4800 of climbing in 4 hours 10, some pictures here.
