| With John - full clockwise traverse from Corrie Hallie around to Sail Liath, over the pinnacles (we did not take the buttress head on), the two munro summits and all 7 munro tops, coming off the incredibly steep side of Ghlas Meall Mor back to Corrie Hallie. Big day - sunny above 600m with cloud inversion in all directions for the whole traverse, with the walk in/out under the cloud. 10.5hrs in total. | mproudfoot | 28/08/2021 |

Then along interesting pinnacled ridge to Bidean a Glas Thuill. Sgurr Creag an Eich, Sgurr Fiona, Lord Berkeleys Seat, Coarrag Bhuidhe and the Buttress, and Stob Cadha Gobhlach, and Sail Liath.

| Having done the clockwise south to north route in may 2004 this route was catalysed to pick up the other tops by doing an east west traverse cutting across all the lower plains from the north eventually round to the SE side of Glas Meall Liath, quite a heavy steep slog up to this summit and then up towards BaGT including the two eastern pinnacles, BaGT, then solo out to this top to complete my AnTeallach collection, before heading up to Sgurr Fiona for a second visit. On glorious day with Sara Hargreaves. The best day of my two weeks away. | vegibagger | 30/08/2012 |

We went back to Bidein a’ Ghlas Thuill. I raced out to Sgurr Creag an Eich (omitted by Rhona) and then Sgurr Fiona. We reached Lord Berkeley’s Seat, the pinnacle next to it, and Corrag Buidhe. There was some fun on the descent here! We went on to Cadha Gobhlach and Sail Liath. We missed out Corrag Buidhe Buttress by mistake. We descended via the Shenavall track. It was warm and sunny all day with clouds high. There were good views in all directions. | pwbellarby | 16/07/1983 |
