Ben Oss
Ben Oss (Gaelic: ''Beinn Ois,'' ) is a Scottish mountain situated in the Stirling Council area, six kilometres south west of the village of Tyndrum within the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park. == Overview == Ben Oss reaches a height of 1029 metres (3376 feet) and qualifies as a Munro and a Marilyn. It stands in a group of hills in the Cononish valley to the west of Tyndrum which consists of three other Munros (Ben Lui, Beinn Dubhchraig and Beinn a' Chleibh) and the Corbett Beinn Chùirn. When viewed from the north or south it is seen as a distinct pointed hill in contrast to its more bulky neighbour Beinn Dubhchraig, with which it is usually climbed. The mountain is quite rocky and craggy being composed of mica schist rock.〔"Hamish‘s Mountain Walk" Pages 80 (Gives geology).〕 The hills name has two possible meanings in the Gaelic with guide books being divided on the subject. “Os” can mean an elk or a loch outlet, with a lochan and a stream with the same name in the immediate vicinity it implies that the area around Ben Oss was where elk were found before they were hunted to extinction.〔"The Magic of the Munros" Pages 15 (Gives details of name translation).〕
