Drove dirt road ~1km past Bunnahabhain Distillery to park just short of covered reservoir (NR 4093 7341). A round of 6 hills, Margadale Hill and Creagan Corr first, then across to here. Strong westerlies and heavy rain made the going difficult. | jonglew | 13/05/2022 |
From Sgarbh Dubh. Solo. | Dangerous Dave | 01/04/2022 |
Across the footbridge and along the grass track that makes the ascent of Sgarbh Breac a doddle, then SW across tussocky grass and minor peat hags to Margadale Hill. A pretty direct line to the south shore of Loch Smigeadail, then contoured around to reach the southern slope of Sgarbh Dubh, up which it is easily climbed. We doubled back to bag the two featureless summits of Creagan Corr before heading over to Giur-bheinn's NE top and for more majestic main summit. Once round Loch Guir-bheinn Deana spied a large gate along the forestry fence line, which once duly climbed through/over gave a grassy/sphagnum descent to a stone track leading back to Bunnahabhain. 5hrs. | summitter | 14/05/2021 |
