Roasting day hitting the Beinn Dearg four with John. 17.5 miles, just under 9 hours. The midges were relentless in the morning even as far as the first summit Dearg but by mid-afternoon (and after the second munro), it was too hot even for them. | mproudfoot | 15/08/2020 |
Solo fr Inverlael, mostly running. Well-broken cloud and sunshine, but a fierce cold wind on this top. Been wanting to tick off this hill (2nd round, of course) for a while! | NorfolkPT21 | 08/08/2020 |

With Alex. Came down from Meall N C too directly and found wet loose slabby rocks with veneer of wet moss. Better to go further NE and E before descending. | gettingonabit | 19/04/2019 |

Fourth day of five-day trip with DW & SL. Staying in Aultguish. Linda joined us for this day too, but did not do all four peaks with us. Classic Beinn Dearg horseshoe from Inverlael. This was an easier day than expected. The ascent to the ~850m col is very gentle, making it very easy. Good weather, with a haze 'inversion'. Descent from Eididh nan Clach Geala. | AGWilliamson | 22/09/2014 |

Solo, 1st of 4. A cracker of a day other than the van not fitting in the carpark and having to drive up the road and cycle back...up to the fence that the 'walk' starts. Excellent path until having to break N to get on ridge. 2hr15 from gate. | bowzi | 29/09/2013 |
