Arrochar - The Cobbler - Arrochar
Bit wintery today! Drove out with Oleg to Arrochar. Weather pretty awful heading through Glasgow but slightly improving heading north. Bit damp and 4C at sea level setting out. Pretty decent path heads out of town, lots of walkers about. Left the main path at the small dam and headed up for the south side of the Cobbler. Snow started just before the cloud level and in shin deep powder not long afterwards. Pretty cool scrambling over small rocks with huge cliff faces peering out of the cloud. Chilly wind at times but mostly sheltered. Got to the summit to find complete white-out conditions on the other side, tried to press on but decided it wasn't worth it so just retraced our steps. Came back down the old path through the trees which was quite wet and slippy. All in all quite a fun outing.
