After staying at Tomacharich. Alone. From the road end near Corriechoille. I went along track and up towards Coire na Ceannain. Then I went up the N ridge to Stob Coire na Ceannain, along the ridge to the main top of Stob Choire Claurigh, the N top, and Stob Coire Gaibhre. Back to Corriechoille. There was a hard frost making the snow hard. It was a very good ridge. Some mist.pwbellarby02/01/1985

En route from Stob Choire Claurigh to Stob Coire na Ceannain. (S)gerrybowes24/10/1983
Cairngorm Club meet. With three fellow members. From Corriechoille over moor and through woods. Then turned right and went up the hillside to Stob Coire Gaibhre followed by Stob Choire Claurigh (N Top), South Top, Stob a’ Choire Leith, Stob Coire Cath na Sine, Caisteall, Stob Coire an Laoigh, Beinn na Socaich, Stob Corrie Easain, Sgurr Chòinnich Mór. Two us included Sgurr Chòinnich Beag to arrive at the car park at the top of Glen Nevis. Rain, mist and high wind made it very trying on the approach to Stob Coire Claurigh. Thereafter there was a gradual improvement. It was clear from Stob Coire an Laoigh. The waterfalls in Glen Nevis were superb.pwbellarby26/09/1981
