From Inverey. | BaggerGutt | 22/05/2022 |
Parked in layby just N of Alltamhait on A93, walked track into Baddoch and a bit beyond, but unable to cross river there, so back-tracked to the weir by the MarineScotland hut at NO135832, negotiated an electric fence and 'No Unauthorised Personnel' signs, and crossed easily there, back along forest edge (not easy) until opposite Baddoch, then W, curving SW, on good stalker path leading to summit of Sgor Mor, continued SW on mostly good track down to col and up the other side, contouring N to summit of Creag an Fhuarthais, back S to summit of An Socach N top, then E down easy slopes to the track along Baddoch Burn, returning to the start (including the bridge at NO129822, which I should have used on the outward leg) | kdbennett | 13/11/2021 |

Return visit to An Socach and returned along the ridge on way back to Baddoch. | benalder284 | 13/06/2021 |
Despite sections of backtracking a good round of four Corbett tops from the start of the Baddach track on the A93. On the track to the bridge then contouring round west for a way before heading straight up to Sgor Mor without difficulty. Then on to Creag an Fhuathais, back round to contour to Sgorr Mor N top and on to Cairn an Drochaide. On return spotted a path heading over the shoulder above Coire na Lairige which looked like an abandoned stalkers path and gave me a good line to head down to and through the woods back to the start. | dickscroop | 26/08/2017 |

Date uncertain, traverse from An Socach to Morrone | rjf35 | 01/08/1988 |
AVALANCHED ! With Mark & John -we triggered a 200 yard wide avalanche on the steep back wall of Coire Chrid up which we were ploughing looking for some snowy sport after a night of heavy snow.We got carried downhill on a carpet of snow -relatively little distance and benign but buried a crampon which we eventually found. A classic wind slab avalnche - heavy dump of new snow on a steep frozen base - add 3 novice winter hill walkers and hey presto. I still remember the woomph noise and seeing a crack split across the headwall before the whole slope began to move and us with it. In some ways a useful sobering lesson. Reascended the now bare slope for walk over the tops. | Chris Pearson | 16/03/1985 |
