Excellent E to W traverse from Kinlochleven to Callert House over the three tops - Beinn na Caillich, 755m top and Mam na Gualainn. Excellent steep snow to first top - quite challenging, then bouncing along on good snow all along the ridge. Only downside was the descent path which was as wet and boggy as ever.

Ridgewalk with Max in driving drizzle and wind. Terrible descent through bracken and steep hillside to roadwalk back to the car.alexmaclennan28/06/2012
Solo. From Kinlochleven. I followed the West Highland Way NW and then the path that crosses Allt Nathrach by a bridge and then goes up the east nose of Beinn na Caillich. There is then a flattish section where my somewhat old OS 1:50,000 map showed no path. I followed what was probably an animal track on the steep northern slopes of Beinn na Caillich and reached the summit. On the descent I found that there is a path all the way to the summit. Dry weather with good views.pwbellarby25/04/2009
