Today was a pretty straight forward climb, 4km walk to get to the mountain and then just about straight up the side to the ridge and an easy last 200m to the summit. Only real challenge was the heat, made it slightly harder going. Was glad of a wee stream crossing over the path near the top, could cool off a bit . The views of the dam on the way up were awesome. As well as the nice clear views fro the top. Makes it worthwhile when you get up there and can actually see for miles. #hike #hiking #instahikes #greatoutdoors #scenery #outdoors #adventures #happyplace #walking #lochlomond #lochsloy #BenVorlich #scotland #hills #mountains #peoplewhohike #amoungthewild #hikingtrailsofinstagram #hikemore #munros #munrobagging #wonderlust #whataview #hotupthere #nofilters (at Ben Vorlich, Loch Lomond) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bkp4KWinbeX/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=vs95jbby9clj

Loch Sloy!" Our haunted souls remind us of battle cries long gone. From Highlands shielded with melodies of Scotland's bravest song. Loch Sloy! Loch Sloy! they cried it or whispered it as they bled. And if they could not rise again it blessed the noble dead. We proclaimed it as a triumph; we moaned it when we fell; we thought it meant, "You won it!" and "Get up again!" as well. We searched to find it's meaning at Clan MacFarlane's home. Loch Sloy means "Springtimes coming'" no matter where ye roam. Whenever trouble hits ye, let it roll past til its fled. Then rise and knock ye'r dust off. "Springtime's comin'" Just Ahead! We smiled, we strange new moderns, to realize it's true. "Loch Sloy" means Springtime's comin' hope is just ahead! We knew. ~Dottie Walters~ #lochsloy #clanmacfarlane #sonofparlan #macfarlane #besafe #family (at Edmonton, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-KM_lFgF-G/?igshid=1onv7rcrvrb9s
