Ascent Trip Report

Due to harvesting the route up was made excessively long. Started from the car park at the east end of Carron Valley Reservoir. From there it was forest tracks for 5 miles which followed the reservoir and then rounded Little Bin on the north side. To the north west of Meilkle a path led from the summit onto the grass slopes. From there the summit was easily attained.
