Today, Mum decided she needed to feel some snow under her flippers, so she climbed Ben Vorlich. It wasn't easy, but she made it all the way to the top!

I took a trip out of Glasgow today to go up to go up the other Ben Vorlich (the one by Loch Earn). I've climbed more mountains this year than I have in a while, but I don't think I've had single cloud-free summit (including today!). Still fun to do, though.

Ben Vorlich on Sunday from Ben Vane. That single patch of sunshine remained in pretty much the same spot for the whole day, while the rest of the Arrochar Alps was shrouded in low cloud.

One of the things I love about Glasgow is how close it is to the mountains. In particular, you can be in the Arrochar Alps within an hour. This area has five Munros and eight Corbetts, including the Cobbler, which was home to Scotland's first climbing club, founded in 1866.

This was the view from Ben Vorlich today back through the western parts of the Arrochar Alps and down to Loch Lomond.

A return to Inveruglas today to bag Ben Vorlich. Munro no. 63. Clear, crisp, cool day, good conditions, enjoyable hill.
