| Poor conditions of rain, thick cloud, wind, large crags and complicated terrain made the traverse from Triuirebheinn very difficult. Anyway, I got there in the end! There is a cairn on every rock on the summit area! Solo. | Dangerous Dave | 07/06/2022 |
| From W, standard route from Lasgair, for the trig bolt near the larger lower cairn. The two higher summits approx equal height | RHW | 24/04/2022 |

| From Lasgair on a murky misty day with Bolton, parked in front of the old school ruin on the main road. The usual route over the bridge, then Beinn Ruigh Choinnich first, up the NW ridge, finding a very good path high up. Down the N ridge, dodging into a washed out river bed near the bealach, then deer tracks up various bits of steep grassy gully then easier S ridge to Triuirebheinn. Descent west on easy short grass at first to Loch nan Smalag and the track. | Gill | 07/09/2021 |

| solo marilyn bagging run from B&B whist others swotted up on the plans for our 2nd Western Isles Challenge starting next day. Shock when I saw a hand bobbing upright in the sea -only a rubber glove. Lesley had earlier hyperventilated going for a brave test swim in the cold lochan behind the B&B in her hired wet suit - we decided to opt out of the swimming option on the event and take the penalty points instead ! | Chris Pearson | 08/05/2000 |
