From Inverlochlarig, straight up Stob Coire an Lochain, Stob Binnein, Ben More, back over to Stob Coire an Lochain, peaks in the mist. On bearing E, but soon below cloud to lovely day. Over very craggy ground with path becoming more intermittent & faint as we headed over Creag a Bhragit, Meall na Dige, Stob Bealach na Frithe to Stob Creagach. Steep in places & awkward Crags. Return SW below na Frithe & contoured Meall na Dige to reach SE ridge. Narrow path to Meall Monachyle but petered out on descent. SW down long grass, climbed deer fence into thigh deep grass through new forestry, with deep holes. Awful but short. Reached wall running E to W. Crossed it & turned W on rough track that ran to fence & turned S vaguely to gate near cattle grid at 460192. Great walk, but final descent needs some work! 21km, 1800m ascent, 8.5 hrs, 7 moving. | Lynnebe | 02/08/2023 |

A Hogmanay slog with Shaky up from Loch Doine just past the hotel. Worst bit was steep ascent to Meall Monachyle, then easier on to Meall na Dige. Ascent to Stob Coire an Lochain done with increasing amounts of snow underfoot & mist & then deep stuff to Stob Binnein. Fortunately someone else had already broken trail. No view. Returned more directly S following the trail & then once below the snowline, SE directly to the road. | NotReallyABagger | 31/12/1996 |

This Top done first on way to Stob Binnein from Inverlochlarig. The unrelentingly steep ascent to Stob Invercarnaig from the car-park was a shock to the system first thing in the morning! | Aye Jimmy | 18/09/1994 |
