6 of 6: From Beinn Eagagach. Cloud down on the top. With Karen.ChrisR30/09/2023
Always enjoy a walk up the track from Netherton, usually for Farragon Hill and Eagagach, now picking off the sims. The big new mine appears finished, was easter so no Tonka trucks on the move today.hils15/04/2022
Had hoped to park at the track marked 'Netherton', but there's a 7 mile clearway from NN88462 60095, and this was being enforced with parking tickets as we passed along. Busy area, so best parking was at a grassy inshot at approx. NN8916 6038. Walked to the Netherton track and up across the new mine track and to the summit. On to Beinn Eagagach.LizH05/06/2021
Round of 6 Simms from Edradynate. Farragon north top, Creag an Lochan, Beinn Eagagach, Tom an Fhuarain, Meall a' Charra, Meall a' Choire. New mine track useful between last two summits.PGCE08/07/2020
From Netherton, via Meall a' Charra and Meall a' Choire. Returned by vehicle track which is now intersected by a new road leading to the new barites mine to the NW of Creag an Fhithich.NormanW01/09/2019
Biked to what used to be Netherton for a late evening ascent of Tom an Fhuarain before a bivi just before the top of Beinn Eagagach continuing the next day with ten more tops to finish at the Lime kiln car park and my car. Beinn Eagagach; Creag an Lochain; Farragon Hill N.top; Creag Mhadaidh; Creag an Loch; Ciochana Chop; Meall Tairneachan; Creag Chean and Meall Odhar Mor. A lot of heather!dickscroop25/08/2019
First of the 8 tops south of the track from Netherton as in need of fresh air between gigs at the March into Pitlochry Festival. A good track pretty much all the way to this one.summitter23/03/2019
