Ascended via the east ridge on my return to Bridge of Orchy after a public transport-powered assault on Beinn Heasgarnich. A line of fence posts lead up to the summit from the east. On descent traversed steep west flank slightly on the north/west side - straightforward but steep enough to require care under snow. Excellent viewpoint with panorama of local Bridge of Orchy Munros, Heasgarnich and Creag Mhor, local Corbetts and uninterrupted view down Loch Lyon.
