Hi Folks,

10 members accompanied Parmjit on a very wet walk in the Pentlands. They managed to get to tea break okay and then the heavens opened so in view of the heavy rain they decided to forego a trip to all of the tops, stayed low level and shortened the walk, another wise decision.

Saturday 26th July

Overview

Jim Dougal will be leading the “B” circuit of the hills above Glen Striddle to Beinn Dubh making an excellent hike, weather permitting. The ascent will be via the grassy ridge rising from Luss with great views over Loch Lomond and towards the Arrochar Alps. The descent from the summit starts off flat, then becomes steep on the way down to the road and into Glen Luss.

Some parts can be boggy in places depending on the weather, so poles and gaiters should be considered.
