| From Geldie Lodge base camp | BaggerGutt | 15/05/2022 |
| Solo. Flat, grassy summit on the way up to Carn an Fhidhleir. | Dangerous Dave | 15/07/2021 |
| I made the long walk in from Blair Atholl to the Falls of Tarf and then ascended Coire na Creige (771m) which was a pathless boggy climb. Then I walked the ridge to the official summit at Braigh Coire Caochan nan Laogh (743m). I was glad the summit wasn't the cairn shown on the OS map as this saved some time! Then along the ridge to Carn Greannach (882m), Druim Sgarsoch (954m) and the main summit of An Sgarsoch (1006m). Then was the difficult bit as next was the second munro, Carn an Fhidhleir (994m). This had looked a big drop on the map but wasn't quite as bad as I feared. I then followed the rivers down to the Tilt valley and then the long walk back. The 61km walk took 17 hours and it was a personal achievement to do it as a single day walk. Cloud free summits. | meltdiceburg | 11/07/2021 |

| Bike in from Lin of Dee - good track to White bridge, then good further half mile, after which very rough. Impossible to bike for me most of time - should have left bike at first building after White Bridge and walked the rest. Also four fords knee deep to cross (with bike!) | carole engel | 06/07/2020 |

Mad dash to get the bike back to the hirers in Braemar | vegibagger | 29/10/1997 |
| Cairngorm Club overnight meet. Came up Glen Feshie the day before and bivvied beside broken down hut at NN906885. I set off at 05:50 to Carn an Fhidhleir or Carn Ealar. Reached the summit in mist. Navigated by compass to An Sgarsoch continuing over deleted top. Descended eastwards and then kept to east bank of Bynack Burn past Bynach Lodge due to burn in spate. Kept on the east side of Geldie Burn and south side of the Dee to reach Muir Cottage at 15:20. No rain since starting at 05:50! I seemed to be the only one to have enjoyed themselves – much tales of rain and wind and woe. Barbecue – 25 yrs anniversary of opening of extension to Muir Hut. 110 yrs of the club. | pwbellarby | 22/06/1997 |
