Overview

These are the two munros at the Glencoe Ski Area. The last time I was here we walked up and, as it turned out, that was quicker than if we had "cheated" and joined the skiers in the queue for the lift. My memory may have exaggerated the actual distance but a significant amount of the descent was done sitting down and using our iceaxes to control our descent. It will be different this time! Depending on a variety of factors (decision made on the day) we may do the walk as Meall a Bhuiridh and then Creise. Estimated time back in Linlithgow is 6.30pm.
