The Pine Path (black) to topmost picnic spot and then NE on severely waterlogged track towards hill. Several outcrops visited.lordtonult12/11/2023
Parked south of Rowadennan in large, free overflow car park. Beinn Uird, Binnein nan Gobhar & SW summit, Beinn Bhreac, Stob a Choin Duibh, The Vine and Gualann. With Gavin.Dangerous Dave27/07/2023
Parked at the Drymen Rd Cottage CP and cycled to the end of a forestry track NE of The Vine. A wee gap running along the northern side of Allt Clachanlaoigh made access to the heathery higher reaches and the summit surprisingly easy. Then simply a matter of following fence lines and deer tracks to tick off Stop a' Choin Dubh, Beinn Bhreac, Binnean nan Gobhar and its NE little sister. Decided to march on to Beinn Uird, something of a relentless heather trudge, but not as wearing as the return to my bike, which required following the deer fence along the forest edge in a general eastwards direction. Getting rather fed up with this I decided to try and short cut through the forest itself ... big mistake! I write this with the physical and mental scars of trying to penetrate its increasingly dense branches.summitter27/04/2022
From Cashel up the main track to the top picnic table then NE-wards on a wet ATV track much of the way up The Vine. On to Stob a' Choin Duibh, Beinn Bhreac, Binnean nan Gobhar NE top, main top and SW top. Heather covered with breakable crust snow on the plateau made it hard work. An ATV track descends helpfully to the W of Binnean nan Gobhar and provides a quick descent back to the Cashel main track.sclater10/12/2021
