2 of 6: From Farragon Hill. Cloud had lifted by the time we arrived. With Karen.ChrisR30/09/2023
Straight forward descent from Farragon Hill N Top, across and up to Creag an Lochain's summit. Continued on to Sron Mhor.LizH05/06/2021
Round of 6 Simms from Edradynate. Farragon north top, Creag an Lochan, Beinn Eagagach, Tom an Fhuarain, Meall a' Charra, Meall a' Choire. New mine track useful between last two summits.PGCE08/07/2020
From Duntanlich after Sron Mohr and the North Top. On to Farragon North Top.NormanW29/11/2019
Up the 4WD track from Netherton, crossing a being-built road going E-W across the range (I know that these mountain tracks are handy for us baggers, but surely enough now!). Eventually the track took me to just below Beinn Eagagach, after which I went cross country to Meall an Fhearna, Beinn Eagagach West Top, then Farragon Hill. Returned to Netherton via the North Top, Creag an Lochain and its North Top, Soon Mhor, then a track to the east of the burn east of this final hill, which leads all the way back to the lochside road. About 5 leisurely hrs in total.summitter20/09/2019
Biked to what used to be Netherton for a late evening ascent of Tom an Fhuarain before a bivi just before the top of Beinn Eagagach continuing the next day with ten more tops to finish at the Lime kiln car park and my car. Beinn Eagagach; Creag an Lochain; Farragon Hill N.top; Creag Mhadaidh; Creag an Loch; Ciochana Chop; Meall Tairneachan; Creag Chean and Meall Odhar Mor. A lot of heather!dickscroop26/08/2019
