Ben Wyvis

9 miles, 910m ascent, 4 hours 45 mins

We seemed to do more driving than walking on this day.  Firstly we had to drive from Tongue to Dingwall to drop off Alison and pick up Simon.  After shopping at Tesco, we drove to the car park at the foot of the mountain, did the walk, then drove to Cannich.  Simon entertained Ben admirably which made for a swift ascent.  We passed maybe 100 people including many children.  They had clearly been celebrating on the top, but the exact occasion we never did ascertain.  The midges kept us moving.  Its a fairly dull mountain from this direction and the mist obscured any views until we descended.
