An anti-clockwise round of 5 Tumps from Griffin Forest car park: Creag na Moine Moire, + its S Top, An Cruachan, Meall Creag Airighe and Creag an Achaidh Bhain 
 
From Meall Creag Airighe, down across replanted brash to boggy col. Then up skirting trees to wall, followed this to summit. Returned same way, but then headed right to join forestry machine tracks across the boggy col to join the outward forest road. | Minto | 23/07/2022 |
Round of five from Griffin car park. The last of the bunch, after an awkward traverse from Meall Creag Airighe, entirely down to clear felling and crap trees. I visited the northern top to be sure but my altimeter suggested that it is two metres lower | Colin Crawford | 09/04/2022 |
Approx WNW from Meall Creag Airighe down edge of felled area and along W side Linne na Bracha and up easily through trees to wall. On descent I left wall at approx 893461, down edge of felled area to 88827/45678, through a thin strip of trees then a short distance over another felled area to road. | duchally | 08/04/2022 |
From Griffin CP. Down and up the W side of the wall. Wet at the low point. Both bumps visited. | chrisbien | 22/03/2022 |
After An Cruachan round the forest road and a bit of a struggle through trees onto the hill. Then followed the wall all the way down to meet the road near the Griffin forest car park. 5 Tump morning with one more later on on the other side of the main road. | NormanW | 12/06/2020 |
Along wall line from south. Can bypass initial fairly deep bog to the east. | daviemore | 07/06/2020 |
