Hill 5 of 7 on a clockwise circuit.Minto09/04/2022
From Colonsay House on a round of the hills on Colonsay's NE end. Beinn Eoin -> Beinn Bheag -> Meall na Monadh -> Dun Crom first then across to here. On to Pairc Gharbh -> Beinn nam Fitheach -> Cnoc Callanta. Also picked up the MacPhies and a trig bolt (searched for but not found)at Leac Bhuidhe on an 11 mile round with Andrew P.jonglew10/09/2021
Descended from Dun Crom to the track, then straight across and much more easily than expected to the summit. Returned by the valley behind Beinn Bhreac and Carnan Eoin, to wall steps at NR41220 98182. A little boggy ground in places, but better walking than expected. Back to the track and across the dunes to the beautiful beach.LizH22/05/2021
The watercourse from the north is fairly easy going, then lots of heather on the final ascent. Done in torrential rainColin Crawford28/07/2018
6th tump of 9 on a 19.8km Northerly loop from the Backpacker's lodge, visiting Beinn an Sgoltaire, Kiloran Bay, Beinn Inebri, Carnan Eoin, Beinn Bheag, Meall na Monadh, over Dun Mheadonach Fort to Dun Crom then continuing East to walk the Bay then over Cnoc Corr, Cnoc a' Charragh, on a line to Bheinn Bhreac before realising that I was going to miss this one, so changed course! Continuing West to Bheinn Bhreac....Dazingdale09/05/2018
After Dùn Crom. Track east to about NR 421996, then south in line with ditches and up wet grass and heather past minor tops to summit. New deep-water fish farm visible in direction of Jura. Back down to track. Strong wind and heavy rain on return walk to Scalasaig, but lift offered (and accepted) for last mile or so. Same gentleman as after Beinn an Sgoltaire, but not out of his way this time.mainnirnamfiadh28/09/2016
