The weather forecast for Thursday the
29th January was pretty bleak for the whole of the UK.
I went out with more hope than expectation. My first
set back came when I reached Aberfoyle to discover the
Duke's Pass was closed to traffic. I had to double back
to Callander and reach Ben A'an from Kilmahog.
The weather threatened a couple of times on the way
up, overall the conditions were excellent. The path
was a bit dangerous in places due to ice and fallen
trees.
