From the roadside east of the car park aas it was full at 9.00am. Path to Ling Hut and then followed the decent path to 955525 which shows on the map turning ENE but now doesn't exist. Rough ground. steep upward climb and very steep for the last 2/300 feet. Maybe better to head east from about 952535. Headed to Sgurr Dubh with D. Dave.bolton31/03/2024

Sgòrr nan Lochan Uaine & Sgùrr Dubh from the Coire Dubh car park. Followed stalkers path south to around point 370m then left the path, east across the rough to eventually a steep final section of scree to the summit of Sgòrr nan Lochan Uaine. From there, descended N down a partial path, then direct across the lochan-filled rough to the start of the reascent up Sgurr Dubh. Instead of going up the gully to the s top, we countoured around to the north side of the summit and ascented up a shoulder to the summit. Descended back down the gully, then west to a deep gorge and followed Allt nan Corrag back down to the boggy terrain below and west back across to the inbound stalkers path which we followed back to the car. Total times: 5h 51min, total moving time: 4h 26min (we spend a good bit of time on both summits).mproudfoot23/09/2023

Perfect day; 1h 20m to get here from Sgurr Dubh, with the lochans all clear and blue, surrounding peaks etched against the sky. Descended NE to pick up good stalkers path, starting exactly where the map shows it, with a wee ring of stones for shelter next to it.NorfolkPT2103/06/2022

Solo on an iffy weather day. Standard SMC route, taking Sgorr nan Locahan Uaine first & then Sgurr Dubh. Followed path for as long as it went up, then across the tops. Retreated quite a long way S from Sgurr Dubh which paid off in an easier than expected descent at the expense of a longer walk.NotReallyABagger25/05/2021

Round of Sgurr nan Lochan Uaine and Sgurr Dubh after cycling up to Coulin Lodge. Nice path up to 500m. Steep scree above 800m. Ridge to SD involves plenty of steep crag dodging.Topographer5724/05/2018
