Up from CarnachAndrew Simmons24/06/2023
08:30, 11 degrees (17 later), cloud base 500', calm at Camus Luinie. Biked to Carnach, mostly on unusually good track. Had intended to climb Creag nan Clachan Geala via Loch Lon Murchaidh first but not paying enough attention in the mist, I found myself on the path to Loch Sgurr na h-Eige so climbed this first instead. On to Creag Ghlas.Wycombe Wanderer31/05/2023

From Killilan, after Aonach Buidhe tops, up from Sgairt Lair to NE, watched a weird 2 prop plane fly up the glen. Down via Carnach, mapped trail not worth bothering with, easy ground. Long line of OS BMs along the GlenRHW18/05/2021

Long day, high cloud, warm, calm, good views.iangalbraith22/06/2010
With two friends from parking area near Killilan. By bike to Carnach. We walked on the track on the NE side of Allt Coire-Easaich. Near a burn junction we took the stalkers' path that climbs up the hillside to the east of Allt Coire-Easaich. The waterfall here was well worth seeing. We found ourselves near the outflow of Loch Sgùrr na h-Eige, still on a path although it was not shown on the map. There is a small bridge over the outflow of Loch Sgùrr na h-Eige. One friend remained here whilst the other friend and I ascended to the summit of Sgùrr na h-Eige. Continued S over other tops.pwbellarby27/06/2009
