West Loch Lomond Islands Canoe & Ascent of the Cobbler

[Scots_Charles_River]

Had to enjoy another blue sky day, paddling out from Luss and around the western isles and having a cuppa or two.

The chart below is out of print. It's handy to have if you don't know the loch and islands. Not more detail than the OS 1:25 though.

We had a hot day y'day up the Cobbler, a scramble route but good enough for a non Munro.

Can I ask what the numbers on the map represent (in the water) ?? Is that a letter N in there I spy...!

The numbers are the depth. Not really effecting canoeing but boaters. N as in Nessy ?

Some nice pics there. Love the cobbler great little hill. I'm hoping to do a spot of camping on one of the islands soon should be fun. Thanks for sharing.
