From Knoydart bunkhouse, up An t-Uiriollach, then Meall Buidhe, followed by its East Top, returned the same way. Horrible day with cloud above 400m driving rain showers and strong winds, with Alex McBride, had planned to do the other munro as well, but conditions not suitable.chillyman825/05/2022

Solo round of Luinne Bheinn & Meall Buidhe from Long Beach campsite - decided to do the route clockwise to make it a longer walk-in than walk-out, not sure if that was the best choice as the descent off Druim Righeanaich was not fun on tired legs. Fairly warm (ended up with some tasty sunburn) and very little wind meant a lot of fluids needed. I had hoped to get around in under 9h, but it ended up being 9h 15min - tougher day than expected.mproudfoot07/05/2022
