Fantastic circuit of the Saddle from Shiel Bridge - Allt Undalain, Loch Coire nan Crogachan, then the long and very undulating north ridge of the Saddle taking in all the summits, count our below Sgurr nan Forcan then descended thenA Mhuing ridge. Superb walking in very cold, windy conditions , but superb visibility and views. 21km 7h 30	Rockdoctor	08/03/2024

From campsite, after Sgurr Mhic Bharraich. From Loch nan Crogachan, the 4th of 5 Simms on Sgurr a' Gharaidh. Back in 1981, unlikely to have gone up onto the summit outcrop, but would have passed within 10m of it.	gerrybowes	26/05/2023

Debs & Talisker. 5 Sgurr a' Gharg Gharaidh ridge tops in SE direction. Up from the lochan and headed down off the last one, picking up an old path, well made in places.	Mountain Goat	10/05/2019
A morning traverse of the 5 tops of Sgurr a'gharg Gharaith from Shiel Bridge. An easy walk in on the good path, a very pleasant traverse in better weather than we expected then dropped off East to valley and mainly pathless until reached inward main path. A very odd section of badly churned up ATV track starting and finishing in the middle of nowhere - how did it get in without leaving a track!	dickscroop	30/09/2017
