| 23 To get to the actual top of Lamachan
you have to head south slightly off the most direct route that goes
from Cambrick Hill to Curleywee via the Bennanbrack ridge - see the
map on page 1 It is well worth
making this minor detour especially if you go slightly beyond the
summit cairn of Lamachan to where the picture above was taken. Coming
in from Cambrick Hill the route was so bland, flat and broad as in
the picture on page 21 after the
rugged Mulldonoch. As you can see in the picture above and those to
follow Lamachan has a steep east face with a bit of character. In the picture below I have zoomed in on the route down the Bennanbrack ridge to Curleywee that we will be taking. Mouseover the image to see the route. The dark hill beyond Curleywee on the right is Cairnsmore of Dee. |
