Solo. From car park at Auchallater along track up Glen Callater. After track crosses Callater Burn found a narrow path going NE. Left it after a while as not going in direction I wanted. Headed up to Creag Phàdruig. Thought summit was top of prominent boulder so I climbed up it. Realised summit was further on. Went on to Meall an t-Slugain, finding a narrow path leading up to summit. Continued to Creag Loisgte and Creag na Dearcaige.pwbellarby05/11/2014
