Followed fence from the nearby Sim, easy up and down, again would be unpleasant if wetTrantham Clan26/05/2023
Cycled in from Etteridge road end to 727951 (bit rougher after Phones) then up the track until it gave out at 400m on Garbh-mheall Mor. Heather to the top then heather/bog to Gaoithe with the only respite being the grassy banks of the upper Allt Ghiubhais. Came back over Am Buachaille to hit the track lower down. Chilly east wind but good walking weather.StueyB01/04/2023
The gate in the fence between this hill and Garbh-mheall Beag at NN 72093 93164 isn't useful as it goes through the wrong fence but, if you go to it, you only have one fence to climb not two.Alan Moore18/02/2022
Parked at the entrance to Etteridge for a circuit of 5 tops: Druim nan Sac West Top, Druim nan Sac, Clach-Mheall Dubh, Garbh-mheall Mor and Garbh-mheall Beag. Still quite wet underfoot despite 4 weeks of dry weather.PGCE30/04/2021
A good 9 top round from parking just off the A9 road to phones, druim an ruighe, creag an fhitich, druim nan sac west top, druim nan sac, clach mheall dubh, garbh mheall mor, garbh mheall beag,creagan an bhruic, creagan a choin.robertphillips07/11/2020
After Clach-Mheall Dubh and before Druim nan Sac W Top, with the worringly flat col areas giving no problems due to the unusaually dry summer. Anti-clockwise round from Munro to Graham.Rod M19/08/2018
Quite a shapely summit cone, had breakfast on top.Lindsay M08/05/2016
