With J during a week in Sutherland. Meall Dheirgidh & Breac-Bheinn from Whale Cottage. Parked about 300m W of track near river access sign. Entry to track flooded so climbed through broken wire deer fence... & got tangled up. J laughed,took photos,laughed a lot more & then helped free my feet. Passed ruins with cuckoo stuck on repeat & continued on reasonably dry ATV track, fainter higher up but worth following as far as possible. Meall Dheirgidh first over rough ground to deer fence. Fence still down at top allowing easy access. Back down fence line, then directly across dryish but rough col & on to Breac-Bheinn & trig. Dropped back SSW crossing the burn easily & picking up ATV track at about 250m & back to start.NotReallyABagger19/05/2022

P a few hundred metres W from beginning of (overgrown in places) track to Whale Cottage. Followed track & its continuation (grassy & less overgrown), almost to col. Breach Bheinn, Meall Dheirgidh & Meall nan Eun (high point appears to be at 49296 93796).ger10/09/2020
Parked up (2 cars) opposite the Whale cottage track. Wet but reasonable going to 488947 and then direst to this old top. With Ger.bolton10/09/2020

From roadside parking at start of track to Whale Cottage. This was near to a footbridge, so it would be possible to start on the other side of the dale. By way of derelict Whale Cottage.Alan Moore29/05/2018
Roadside verge parking at NH 5042 9280. Very poor track up to derelict Whale Cottage. Faint track leads on N. Crossed the Allt nan Eun at NH 4990 9402 then direct to here. New summit and then across to Meall Dheirgidh and Meall nan Eun. With Carole Engel.jonglew02/04/2018
4 of 5: From Breac-Bheinn.ChrisR05/04/2017
Up and down from Whale Cott. track. Bagged in defence against recent restoration phenomenon and of all three spot heights plus contending contour ring W in defence against summit relocation attack. Reckon 'bin here last time but diary failed to record trig being more obsessed with condition of Whale Cott - now down to walls and chimney.Eddie25/08/2016
The old top, better location than the new, which doesn't appear higher anyway, further top more promising with cairnnordicstar26/07/2016
Revisit for trig: may have been here in 13/10/01 tooRHW03/05/2008
