From the Wikipedia article

Ben Oss (Scottish Gaelic: Beinn Os) is a mountain in the southern Highlands of Scotland. It is a Munro with a height of 1,029 metres (3,376 ft). Ben Oss is on the border of Argyll and Perthshire, southwest of Tyndrum, within Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park. It is part of a mountain chain that includes three other Munros. 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.
