From NE, Lettermay, mapped path runs into windthrow and continues a few metres downhill. On way down from Cnoc na Tri Criche. Impressive S face, headed up steep grassy gully from SE end of lochan.	RHW	26/05/2021

From Lettermay up forest track to near Lochan na Cnaimh. Much of the forest is felled but windowblow blocks the final bit up to the loch so we climbed above the plantation to the ridge. A foot of snow, strong winds and spindrift.	sclater	29/12/2020
Along the forest road, the straight up to the summit going through and then behind the forest. Sunny day, very cold plus strong wind at the summit, deep snow.	Missphoton	29/12/2020
From Lettermay. Abominably rough terrain. benalder284�s �sharp bend� is in middle of Loch Goil. Extraction vehicle track starts just S of junction at NN177000 and goes steeply up to tree line at about NN176990 to very steep grass where the foresters gave up (probably same as nordicstar�s line). Then it�s very rough trackless grass and heather to the top. Descended over tops to col at NS167979, crossed fence at cluster of boulders � crumbling muddy descent of steep S bank of burn until very faint sign of path on other side � way looks blocked, but a fair path starts going NNE but doesn�t last long and ends up in a fight through felled area. Descended a clear section to Lettermay Burn hoping for better going on banks, but just as purgatorial � blessed relief to hit the extended forest road at burn crossing. jenx�s route appears to be no more.
