A tough slog up the steep, mossy slopes on a warm day but the constant aerial attack by big horrible mosquitos (these things made midges look soft!) keep me going up to the higher and cooler altitudes. Couldn't find the path OR the disused mines but what I did see was fantastic views of the Crianlarich mountains, the Ben Lui group, Ben Cruachan in the distance, The Black Mount and beyond to Ben Nevis. It was a little hazy so on a better day you might be able to see even further. Warning though - watch out for RAF Tornados, one just about took my head off! I've never been so terrified!

The infamous traverse of the five Corbetts is a tougher day than you would think. I'd recommend the circle of Beinn Odhar, Beinn Chaorach, Cam Chreag and then Ben Challum from Tyndrum.
