| From Keiloch by bike after bagging Craig Leek and Meall Gorm. Cycled up side Glen to 141960. Used an old atv track on foot to gain height initially then straight line to top. Nice view of snowy Munros. | NormanW | 17/11/2023 |

| #7 of 9 from Invercauld | RHW | 02/06/2021 |
| From Keiloch, up the Slugain to the second ford, bulldozed track to its high point then towards Meall Dorch, joining an ATV track, then deer tracks towards Meall an t-Slugain, bogs, then heather to summit but nice tundra walk down and over Carn na Craoibhe Seileich. Joined wrecked ATV track lower down to Eag Dubh then up rough stuff, easy on ridge to Creag an Dail Bheag, over Carn Liath and down easily at first, then long heather to join awful path at col below Creag a' Chait. Deer track gives easy way up through short heather to summit. Down is mainly easy going, then across Allt Dourie to ATV track and gate, then track to the Stables and back to Keiloch. | Gill | 13/04/2021 |

| See Creag a Chiarich. On main valley track a small cairn by a stream marks a good point to head off east up the hill. | dickscroop | 22/06/2015 |

| Solo. From walkers' car park at Keiloch. To Gleann an t-Slugain and up the SE slopes of Meall an t-Slugain. I reached a cairn that seemed to mark the summit of Meall an t-Slugain. However, spot height on OS 1:50,000 is a little further on so I went to that point. It seemed lower but this is just from visual observation. Continued to Creag an Dhail Bheag and Carn Liath. | pwbellarby | 11/01/2013 |
