Easy jog from main summit. All going well, averaging 6.7km/h so plenty of time to get to Ratagan before scheduled road closure. Back over the main summit and jogged back to the bike. Got about 500m down the track when my back wheel bottomed out on a rock, causing a pinch puncture. No problem, whipped out a spare inner and ripped the tyre off without levers. Then disaster. No matter what I did, I could not get any air into the tube with my trusty pump - that I had always used with presta valves, not schrader. After an hour I gave up and pushed the bike back to start. Moral of the story - go back to using a mountain bike or put more than 15 psi in the tyres. | Wycombe Wanderer | 23/05/2023 |
Parked near the Glen Loy road end for a circuit of Druim Fada West Top, Druim Gleann Laoigh, Meall a' Phubuill East Top and Mullach Coire nan Geur-oirean West Top. Returned via rickety bridge (shown on 1:25k map) over River Mallie near its junction with the Allt a'Cham Doire. About 26km with 2000m ascent. | PGCE | 24/03/2023 |

From E end of Loch Arkaig in very dry, sunny spell. Followed track along glen along River Mallie, roughly following SMC guide for ascent to Mullach Coire nan Geur-oirean. Camped just beyond top, continued to W top and descended SE to rejoin track along glen. Sunny, excellent views, though cold wind on tops. | RobertP | 22/04/2022 |
After main top then SE to Ruighe Mor. | duchally | 22/03/2022 |

Only just a SIM I think. Easy walk out on the ridge. | jenx | 20/03/2016 |
A long bike ride then walk to main top, then further to the Graham / Simm top before dropping to valley and out. | nordicstar | 20/03/2016 |
Equally viewless as the main top for me. | Martin R | 28/10/2015 |

Dumped rucksack on main top for pleasant easy detour | alda | 31/05/2008 |
Contoured past the summit a gnats hair away to save 10 metres of unnecessary climbing on an attempt to climb / run 24 marilyns in 24 hours - this was on/in the way to Gulvain- and I did not know of Tumps then or would probably have visited the cairn - so no summit tick | Chris Pearson | 27/08/2001 |
