Glen Finlas run, starting from the layby at the entrance to the glen, up and down the dam access road with a loop round the hills in between. Took the rough track on the north side of the reservoir, The track has deteriorated over the years, overgrown, a couple of landslips and much of it under water. Just past a stream/gulley past the end of the reservoir follow an old broken fence line to the top, there's a bit of a path if you can find it. Once you get onto the ridge, there's a good path, followed it anti clockwise over Beinn Ruisg, Creag an Leinibh and Balcnock's two tops, aim was to descend North to the dam to avoid the worst of the tussocks and ditches over Craperoch, left the path 1.5 miles after Balcnock's second top, too soon, had to traverse along tussocky ground for another half mile then down to the dam and a run back down beside the access road to finish. Disturbed 3 raptors feeding on a sheep on the climb up to the ridge and a stag as I ran along the ridge.
