From Oreval- a really good ridge route with a marvellous surprise at Cathadail an Ear, a notch low on the S ridge with a stunning mountain view. After this the ridge was straightforward though with bouldery sections; Ulaval was my favourite mountain of the 4 Tumps I visited today.pwheeler14/05/2019
From Oreval. White out all the way. Arrived at summit, thanks to GPS, stopped snowing, views all clear and white. Perfect. But...back down via Loch Aiseabhat where it then rained back to the car. Drowned.iangalbraith09/05/2019
