An easy walk over from Creag na h-Iolaire with jonglew on short grass. Helen & Phil joined us on the summit a few minutes later, then onwards to Ben Armine. A lovely sunny day. | Dangerous Dave | 12/11/2023 |
From the slightly higher Creag a Choire Ghlais. The bealach between the two peaks had the usual littering of peat hags to negotiate and then good ground nearer the top. Not really a cairn at top just a few flat stones on the ground. | Jossker | 03/09/2022 |
