best rocks in the Corrie are on the right hand as we ascend 

 the burn. On these rocks we saw many of the common 

 alpine plants, including Draha incana, L. ; and Hymeno- 

 'phyllum unilaterale, Willd. "We ascended to the summit by 

 the south ridge, and on the ridge saw Potentilla Sibhaldi, 

 Hall. f. ; Silene acaulis, L. ; Gnaphalium supinum, L. ; &c. 

 From the summit we obtained a splendid view : we saw 

 Loch Voil and Loch Lomond, and had a good view of the 

 surrounding mountains. On the rocks at the summit we 

 gathered many good plants, including Saxifraga nivalis, L. 



By far the best botanising ground on this mountain is 

 among the debris in the ravine leading from the summit 

 north-east towards Am Binnein. On this portion of the 

 mountain we found such plants as Cerastittin alpimim, L. ; 

 CocJilearia alpina, Wats. ; Armeria vulgaris, Willd. ; Epilo- 

 hiwn alpinum, L. ; Silene acaulis, L. ; Saxifraga nivalis, L. ; 

 and other species. 



On returning to Crianlarich we learned that the train was 

 nearly two hours late. We therefore drove to Tyndrum in 

 a waggonette, and reached the hotel in good time for dinner, 

 after a very pleasant though not a very productive excursion, 

 but an excursion to a mountain which was new ground to 

 the Club, and one about which we previously knew nothing. 



This may be said to have ended our excursion, for on 

 Saturday the meetings of the Club were brought to a close, 

 and all the members returned home except Mr Potts, who 

 remained behind for a few days' fishing.
