Self and dog. Parked opposite caravan site S of Braemar. Surprisingly good path climbs near the old wall S of Lion's Face. Above the wee crag at NN167909 the path is closer to the wall than shown on the 1:25k map; it goes to the summit and on to the cairn at the SW end of the ridge. The granite at the top of the hill extends all the way to Lochnagar. | Invicta14 | 02/10/2022 |

Descended steeply on a path going S from Creag Choinnich, but left the path to cut across the hillside and finally join the main path around the 'Loin's Face' area.

Solo. From car park at Keiloch. After ascending Creag nan Leachda and Millstone Cairn. From summit of latter descended NNW to the col with Carn nan Sgliat with some difficulty. Beyond col found a narrow path ascending to the summit ridge of Carn nan Sgliat. Higher up it joined a well trodden path. Passed quite large cairn at SW end before reaching the summit where there is a stone shelter with quite high walls. Followed path northwards until it bent towards Braemar where I went NE to the A93 road. | pwbellarby | 20/08/2013 |
