Up the boulder by the LH edge of the SE slab, awkward enough that I might have wanted a runner if it had been up on a real route. | IainT | 31/07/2020 |
Whilst bagging Simms. Climbed to the top of the boulder. | PGCE | 21/07/2020 |
From Dalnavaid Bridge (plenty of parking) we to the abandoned farmhouses and took a NNW bearing to avoid the steepest crags of Stronhayie Craig. This turned out to be a good decision as a series of sheep and deer tracks interlinked to get us to a midpoint between Stronhayie Craig and Gurlet. Once Gurlet bagged it was a simple matter of horseshoeing around the boggy land between the North Top (scaled the boulder!), Crungie Clach (great name) and Crungie Dubh, using as many snow patches en route as possible to keep clean and dry. Returned via an ATV track picked up just north of Balgholan Craig that becomes a firmer track once below Stronhayie Craig. | summitter | 22/03/2020 |

Circuit from Dalnavaid. Too wet to attempt to climb the boulder. Grateful that 40cm have not been found. | richtea5040 | 06/12/2016 |
Very dry conditions made for an easy ascent of the boulder's mini north ridge. Descended via angled slab on E side. | Lindsay M | 02/06/2016 |
After Crungie Clach, with Rod Munro. Damp and slippery but we got a hand on top of the boulder | RHW | 16/11/2014 |
