Camped at Cluanie and did the ridge from Creag a Mhaim but continued to Sgurr na Sgine (ascending straight up the face) and dropped down to Glen Shiel via Faochaog. Had left bike at the road, but still tried to hitch. Gave up and cycled back to Cluanie as midges were biting.jigglybones29/05/2019

3pm start due to rain and low cloud cover. A long slog up in wind and rain, 3 hours to the top of Faochag and another to the top of Sgurr na Sgine. 2 hours down still in the wind and the rain!!akraw07/06/2011

After a full breakfast in the Kintail Lodge Hotel I parked in Glen Shiel in a lay-by about 100 metres further up the glen from the point where a public right of way to Loch Quoich. I passed through the gate at the start of the right of way but immediately struck uphill. It was a warm sunny day. I was moving very slowly after the previous day's exertions. A couple of deer fences added to the difficulties, although I found a gate through the first one. The views more than compensated for the hard work. People on the stalkers path up to the Forcan Ridge and on the summit of The Saddle were clearly visible. From the former Munro Top at Faochag the angle eased and it was a pleasant high level walk before steepening again to Sgurr na Signe’s North West Top and the summit over some rocky ground. Rather than retrace my steps I descended to the col below The Saddle, contoured round below the Forcan ridge next to a wall to pick up the excellent path beyond Meallan Odhar and back down to the roadlangskill10/04/2011

Round of Sgurr na Sgine & the Saddle from the A87 on a clear day with Shaky. Straight up the whelk (Faochag) which had the merit of gaining height quickly. Followed ridge to Sgurr na Sgine & then across to the Saddle, exploring some of the tops. Worked back to Bealach Coire Mhalagain & dropped directly back to the road.

my first ascent, 2 in group, climbed on the way to skye, overcast but a clear day. followed stalkers path up, meallan odhar, then the ridge proper, nice and narrow with an awkward down climb from a minor top, would be nasty in winter! continued on over and up the final steep section, a minor bump then the summit for lunch, descended down a steep and loose gully, contoured into the col and climbed up to a minor top. then south and up hill again, gaining the first top then the summit of sgurr na sgeine. returned along the ridge to faochag and a very steep descent back to glen shiel.rum doodle 12/07/1997

With two friends. From Suardalan Bothy (first rate) along a track through forest on the west side of Bealach a’ Chasain (forest now extends further S than track end), then across the valley to a minor top just to N of Sgurr Leac nan Each. On to Sgurr Leac nan Each, Spidean Dhomhuill Bhric, the W top of the Saddle, the trig point, the main top, East top, Sgurr nan Forcan, NW top of Sgurr na Sgine, main top. Went back to Bealach Coire Mhàlagain. We aimed to cross over to Coire Caol, but went too far east (very misty) so went down to the road and walked along the road to Shiel Bridge (no lifts!). From Ratagan west up by edge of forest and N of Sgurr Mhic Bharraich to reach the bothy at 23:30! Rain and very misty.pwbellarby31/05/1986

Solo from high camp - evening ascent to escape midges and bag tops.Chris Pearson23/07/1983
With two friends. After staying at Glen Brittle YH. Conditions of strong wind and mist made us decide against anything in Cuillins. On mainland there was rain so coffee was had at Robin's nest, Dornie. From NG970140 on the path beside Allt Mhàlagain, keeping to west side. Then we followed Allt Coire Toiteil. Reached the NW top of Sgurr na Sgine and the main top. Went down the NE ridge - steep - much vegetation. We reached Sgurr a' Bhac Chaolais. We went down to Bealach Duibh Leac, then followed the path back to car (more a line of cairns in upper part). Wet and windy with mist on the highest parts.pwbellarby12/06/1983
