Staying at OMC Cottage in Crianlarich, with Richard Moore, Nicky Creadland and Gill Short. Parked at gravel parking opposite Coileitir, followed bogged path alongside the Allt Mheuran to the bleacach. Then on to Dtoc Coir'an Albannaich, down to Meall Tarsuinn and ending on Meall nan Eun. The descend from here into Glen Ceiltein was never ending and boggy, but the new hydro track made the final 2miles manageable, 08:30hrs. Munro No's 194 & 195.chillyman820/08/2023

The cloud cleared and the rest of the day was warm and sunny with great views with all the hills on show. Bit of snow left on north facing cliffs. Steep descent then over Meall Tarsuinn and on to Meall nan Eun. Descent into Glen Ceitlein was pathless and very rough.

Great day with Ron Dorn. Sunny, high cloud and little wind. Usual route from Coileitir but had to drop to 650m on east ridge of Albanaich to get free of snow cornice. 8 1/2 hours.alexmaclennan27/04/2014
Still some snow on the north face descent between the two hills climbed, an ice axe would have been handy! Steady pace for most of the day, first climb of the year!FCMark25/04/2014
Long walk in. Nice day but cloudy tops. Had to climb through a snow bank to get to the 2nd hill! Scary stuff.akmilne25/04/2014

Hot and sunny. A ggod round including Meall nan Eun but decided to leave Ghlas Bheinn Mhor and include in a round of Starav - might regret this. 7 hours in total - 23c back at the road side.Roblex06/06/2013
