| From Geldie Lodge base camp | BaggerGutt | 16/05/2022 |
| I made the long walk in from Blair Atholl to the Falls of Tarf and then ascended Coire na Creige (771m) which was a pathless boggy climb. Then I walked the ridge to the official summit at Braigh Coire Caochan nan Laogh (743m). I was glad the summit wasn't the cairn shown on the OS map as this saved some time! Then along the ridge to Carn Greannach (882m), Druim Sgarsoch (954m) and the main summit of An Sgarsoch (1006m). Then was the difficult bit as next was the second munro, Carn an Fhidhleir (994m). This had looked a big drop on the map but wasn't quite as bad as I feared. I then followed the rivers down to the Tilt valley and then the long walk back. The 61km walk took 17 hours and it was a personal achievement to do it as a single day walk. Cloud free summits. | meltdiceburg | 11/07/2021 |
