With Rhona and Struie. Starting West Merkland. Up estate track and then up path by Allt Coil a Chruiteir as per Walk Highland. Turn left on ridge at top for simple ascent. Walk made more interesting by crossing bealach to Ben Hee North Top. Gives a much better view of the hill. Return via Sail Gharbh. | DampandDusty | 17/06/2023 |
After Ben Hee, back via Meallan Liath Mor. | duchally | 09/06/2023 |

A disaster of a day though it started well. From road, up track and path, found a place to cut up to Meallan Liath Mor. Round to Ben Hee main summit and on to NE top with no significant problems. The headed straight down towards the small lochan at half height, very steep ground and my pole broke (strap pulled out) with my weight fully committed to it. Fell and bounced and rolled about 70-80 feet. Broke my right arm (Ulna) and smashed up my left thumb. By myself, I had drowned my phone a couple of days earlier so no option but to walk out which I managed OK. Then after some tea and a cake at the house at the end of the track drove to hospital at Inverness! | dickscroop | 25/08/2020 |

From Ben Hee. Easy ridge walking, fascinating landslip/ pavement at bealach. It was nice to have a ridgewalk today, so clear and sunny. returned to West Merkland by climbing back up Ben Hee until I could contour across to Sail Gharbh. Its real roughness is on the N side; Sail Gharbh's S corrie gave an pleasant pathless descent to rejoin the stalkers path across Allt Coir a'Chruteir. | pwheeler | 16/05/2018 |
