Ridge from Glas Bheinn, wow what a boulder field was roundly cursing it by time got too summits. Rocks wet from persistent rain, descended of then then found lower path back to car. Sodden, wet but strangely happy. Company: A companion would have killed me for making walk this boulder field. Haiandesbottes01/10/2020
Picking up odds and ends of tops but an interesting day nonetheless. From Inchnadamph followed stream straight up to ridge though I had a few doubts about exactly where I was when I got there - slightly south of were I expected. But then straightforward to Na Tuadhan (Ct)); on to Meall na Caoroch (Gt); Beinn Uidhe S top (Gt); and on to Beinn Uidhe (Gt). Dropped down to NW as ground looked easier and probably was.dickscroop03/08/2019

Part of Glas Bheinn trip. Lots of boulders.justin99920/06/2018
Part of Glas Bheinn(qv), Beinn Uidhe and Coire Leacach from A894 by Loch na Gainmhich. Interesting ridgewalk from Glas Bheinn with great views down Coire Gorm, a classic arête (easy, no scrambling) then over stony ground- a bit over boulders but also rock pavements to this wild summit. The return went through wilder terrain using the route of a path marked only on some maps. Though hard to follow, the terrain forced me to follow its route. Fortunately, the path to the V-shaped lochan NC280269 can be seen slanting across the mountainside, though the junction of the paths at NC29432589 is obscure. Hard work following this route without a GPS. I wonder if a short cut NNW from the lochan at NC287253 can be made, avoiding waterfalls on the burns? After NC280269 the route is much easier to follow but there is still a 500 ft climb. The reward is a walk in the magnificent wildernedss between Glas Bheinn and Beinn Leoid.pwheeler19/05/2018
Inchnadamph circular.Smudge17/04/2015
From Inchnadamph, path then kept E of Loch Fleodach Coire, then steep ascent to Uidhe keeping mostly to grass. Descending traverse to S top mostly worked OK. Then Caorach and nice runnable descent to Conival motorway.RHW29/05/2014
