In swirling mist with brockenspectres. Scramble with one slightly awkward move just below summit. Amazing area.Denise 30/06/2021
With Denise. Ascent of the 3m summit block is more awkward than it looks.RichardM30/06/2021
Was last on the Prison in 1984 and think I got to the top then - certainly did today. What a tremendous hill - with some adrenalin generated on the summit scramble.sclater06/12/2020

5th of 14, reasonable quality rock. Next hill Quiraing East Peak.Dave McG30/05/2018
Two car loads up from Glenbrittle to the Quiraing and gorgeous climb up to the summit spire of the Prison, walk round the path below eastern cliffs and on to Sron Vourlinn then back over Marilyn summit Meall na Suiramach. Then off to the coast to search for dinosaur footprints.vegibagger15/05/2017
