Day 1 on Skye, tough day out with poor visibility but great day with technical walking and great scrambling made up for the lack of views.Kevthecat03/07/2022

Sgurr nan Eag and Sgurr Dubh Mor with Harrison and Bethany. Roasting hot day added a extra challenge, and Bethany decided to skip Dubh Mor and wait in Coire Ghrunnda for us to return. Was glad to get back to Glenbrittle (where I just about emptied the campsite shop of cold drinks).mproudfoot05/06/2022

OMC Meet at Glenbrittle campsite, with Karen Webber and Andy Moffat. The hike into Coira' Ghrunnda was fine until a navigational mishap required a rope over a slightly exposed step well to the left of the burn. From the coire up to Sgurr nan Eag was steep but ok then along the ridge. Sunny all day with views of Rum, Canna, Muck, Eigg and Mull, western islea just visible in the haze. Once back in coire the coastguard helicopter buzzed us twice then landed as a training exercise, amazing.chillyman829/04/2022

From Glen Brittle Memorial Hut, good track leads up into Coir' a' Ghrunnda, gets a bit scrambly but nothing difficult. Fourth hill on a linear route to Gars-bheinn. On to Sgurr a' Choire Bhig.jonglew01/10/2019
