Superb approach up dramatic Achaidh a' Ghlinne. With Alex Cameron | Colin Crawford | 14/06/2017 |
Overnight backpack from Strathan. Followed path to col between Sgurr na Ciche and Garbh Chioch Mhor, then contoured to join NE ridge of Sgurr na Ciche. Descended through crags to reach beallach then ascent to Meall a'Choire Dhuibh (also alternative top), rough traverse to Ben Aden E top then steep climb and final narrow ridge to reach Ben Aden (approx 7h). Returned by same route, with spectacular overnight camp on NE ridge of Sgurr na Ciche in shallow beallach below summit. Outstanding weather - warm, sunny and clear with impressive views. | RobertP | 23/05/2016 |
