| A morning traverse of the 5 tops of Sgurr a'gharg Gharaith from Shiel Bridge. An easy walk in on the good path, a very pleasant traverse in better weather than we expected then dropped off East to valley and mainly pathless until reached inward main path. A very odd section of badly churned up ATV track starting and finishing in the middle of nowhere - how did it get in without leaving a track! | dickscroop | 30/09/2017 |
