Pleasant walk from Tullich Hill, though drizzly weather. Descended back to col, then NE over grass to vehicle track on W side of Allt a'Chloidh (shows as just path on earlier maps). Took right fork further along to descend to minor road W of Claggan, at a little cottage (gate at NN7119 3857).LizH01/08/2023

From Ardeonaig: starting by the footpath sign, then picked up the ATV track in the second field.Pete R14/08/2021
From Creag Uchdag. Extensive peat hags around the col, thankfully very dry today. Returned to the car above Ardtalnaig at Achomer north, easy grassy slopes past point 626 to the Gleann a' Chloidh track. 200 metres from the car, a gate to a field with a herd of cattle including Arnie Schwarzenegger the bull. After a few minutes weighing up options and escape routes they gambolled off to the west of the field allowing me safe passage down the east side.Owen B17/07/2021

Along the footpath parallel to the Finglen Burn from Andeonaig. Sheep density thinned out as we climbed higher, before we headed off-path up to the low top of Tom a' Mhoraire then Creag Uchdag, which is a fine summit. Took the high-route back over the hags and tussocky grass to Meall nan Oighreag then along the fence line to Tullich Hill. An easy westerly descent back to the south Tay road reunited us with the sheep and provided a superb vista along this gorgeous glen to complete a four hour round.summitter06/06/2020
