Beinn Ime and Beinn Narnain

Looking for a run with plenty of ascent and a steep rough descent, decided on Arrochar, Beinn Ime then Narnain. Arrived before 9 to a full car park and set off up the two sets of zig zags to clear the trees. Surprisingly few people going up compared to the number of cars, a few coming down must have had an early start to beat the car park charges which start at 9. Cool breeze on the path up to Bealach a'Mhaim, eased as I gained height and I settled into a fast walk for most of the rest of the climb to the top. Short refuel and straight back down to the Bealach and the short steep climb to Narnians' plateau summit. Down through the spearhead to finish, slowly at first through the crags then a bit quicker as the terrain eased, quite a few walkers coming up now, finished in warm midday sunshine. Good views, the more distant hills a bit hazy.
