Following Corra Bheinn via Evans Walk. Onto Scrinadle.N.Morters31/03/2022
Unfinished business from yesterday; best brave Evan's walk again while the weather's nice, too depressing otherwise. Up to pt252 and across the heather ridge above Loch na Fudarlaich to pick up an excellent deer track below the obvious patch of scree, then a dry ATV track to the lochan below Beinn Bhreac. Nice stroll up short heather to the fine top and wonderful views.Gill27/03/2022

Bhreac, Scrinadle and Corra Bheinn anti-clockwise. 7.5 hrs. Roadside parking f0r 4/5 cars. Evans Walk was very boggy till higher up.AndrewFinnimore25/03/2019
From Scrinadle. Fed up with the mist, so took a direct line east down below the cloud base and up over the stream, left (north) of Allt a Chromain. Some boulders, heather, long grass, but not as bad as it looked on the map. Then south to the high point of Evans path back to the car.Owen B21/08/2018

With Corra Bheinn via the Evans Path.Chris Peart09/05/2017
The pair of Scribadle and Beinn Breac with Jenx via the Evans path. Once over the col on Corra Bheinn a contour line at 210m is good to get a high foothold on Scrinadle. Return the same line and at end of reverse contour a ditect line up onto Beinn Breac. A fine descent line contouring lower eaks on deer track lands one on the Evans path at 260m and an hours quick descent back to the car.nordicstar29/05/2016
Continuation from Scrinadle was straightforward, and found a nice rout back to the Evans path at the bealach.jenx29/05/2016

Thank heaven for the Evans path. Did it after Scrinadle so did not make much use of the aforesaid path even on the descent. After the lengthy dry spell one (or three) can walk anywhere.Martin R12/06/2012
As Martin R. with Cliff S. on this super smaller hill with lovely all round views. Then walk back where you want as conditions are so dry underfoot.Dugswell212/06/2012

To Islay for SCD weekend. Parked at start of Evans Walk. Kept higher up this time but still found bogs and unpleasant walking. Across the river to top of path. On better path for 3/4m to a bealach. To highest point of the pass and gentle walk into a side valley following deer tracks. To lochans and a continuation N to top at 11.00.arranc04/05/2007
