Ben Lomond by Ptarmigan hill with Bailey 2/05/09

The most climbed Munro in Scotland; the Ptarmigan hill route by far the
best. The path is seriously 'cut' and I know after running it some 15 years
ago and since a few times more and walking.
We had the 5 seasons in one day as can be expected in Scotland, but mostly
very enjoyable. It was heartening to see so many people out and really
experiencing what variety we have at the best.

Bailey was really fantastic and this is his first BIG HILL. He did twice the
walk we did and was so confident, so happy and so good...the trailbreaker,
the leader, the carer, the friend. He is a truly remarkably good boy and
family run pet, a real commendation to the girls.

The weather was great and you'll even note the snow; the fronts blew in and
cleared. The sea-plane flew up over Loch Lomond, towards the west coast by
the Arrochar Alps, and I snapped it over Ben Arthur, or often known as the
iconic 'Cobbler'. The primroses were beautiful along with the bluebells.
Black hill cattle studded the lower slopes like tadpoles on the hillside.
The views enthrall.

Go there, do it, see it, feel it, and enjoy, super special Scotland.
Br, Denis.
