Failed to do this Graham a while back after knee pain on the 2 Corbetts. This was a spare Graham in case of bad weather as I was travelling north. No problems apart from the slog up the track and then the pathless mountain and back. Weather was drizzle, no wind.Jhimmy20/03/2023

Clockwise circuit of 2 Corbetts + 1 Graham. Crossing the Allt Tarsuinn was surprisingly tricky after four very wet days. Crossed at about the 450m contour. Barely 2 metres wide but not safely jumpable and fast flowing and quite deep. Left foot stayed dry on a large rock but right leg went thigh deep with a walking pole bracing against the current. After that straightforward, just a steepish grassy plod in the mist. Fairly easy grassy slopes to return to the track back to Achnasaul.Owen B10/10/2019

From the Witches Pool, up the forestry track along the Gleann Cia-aig to Meall an t-Sagairt, across to Meall na h-Eilde and on to Meall Coire nan Saobhaidh, before doubling back to h-Eilde's west top and the big down and up to the fine ridge of Glas Bheinn. Got back on the forestry track by returning northwards to Coire na Cosaig, then eastwards to a dam over which it is possible to cross the Abhainn Chia-aig.summitter13/04/2019
Up from near Marine Harvest to 250m beyond dam, then up hillside, in 1hr 40mins. Descent by same route.willyross01/03/2019

A lot of snow in forecast so settled for a shortish day. In fact most had come overnight so though deep on ground, and very soft (knee deep and thigh deep in the odd place) weather during walk was good. Path on map from Achnasaul was in fact a good track (beneath the snow). After 2 km left track to head straight up ridge. Very pleasant, just a bit of wind on summit.dickscroop29/01/2019
