Ben Chonzie - 931m
Saturday 16th June 2012
Saturday 16th June 2012
Weather/Conditions: Totally clagged in conditions. Damp and windy on the top, and dense mist on top. Loch Earn did look spectacular for it on the way home, though.
Distance/Ascent/Time: 13.5km / 750m / 3h 15m
Accompanying: Uncle Steve
We followed the track to it's very top, then began to navigate over the plateau. A Munros completion party was up - they looked happy, though it was a shame that someone should complete the Munros in pea soup and a gale! The limits of a set date make this a common occurrence though, and I finished my own round the following year on Slioch, in a howling gale and rain!
Unfortunately it was one of those days that doesn't really stick out and details were noticeable by their absence. Uncle Steve did however have a pretty nasty fall as we bombed it back down the hill. I'm not sure I saw him out on a hill much after this!
We returned home via. Loch Earn - and once again Beinn Fuath looked absolutely spectacular. A nice day out, but unfortunately I can't actually remember much. That also says something about the day.
