After ascending Sgùrr na h-Eige went S to Creag Ghlas, Stuc Fraoch Choire. This top is a Murdo and was my last Murdo. It was also the last Murdo for one of the friends I was with. This top was not until recent times a Munro top and so had not been done on my first completion of the Munro tops. We continued to Stùc Mòr and Stùc Bheag. I went alone over Meall Sguman on the way back to Carnach and by bike to Killilin. The weather was cloudy but mostly dry during the day, with cloud-free summits. | pwbellarby | 27/06/2009 |
Continued out along the ridge from Stuc Mor, it looked a long way back up to the main ridge. | yorkie | 26/05/2009 |

Back contouring around two corries on north side and back to the col W of An Socach when tirednes gnawed to my brain pleading with me not to go up W to collect the other Murdo top, but I just had to, knowing I,d regrtit if I didn't so I did and am very grateful. Another great solo day on the heights. | vegibagger | 25/07/2007 |

Annoying! - the creation of this new 'Munro Top' in the 1997 review, after I'd already finished them in 1996 on Carn Dearg Meadhonach. Resulted in a long walk from Dorusdain, Falls of Glomach, on to Sgurr nan Ceathramhnan. Bonus was bagging Corbett Sgurr Gaorsaic on way back. | Aye Jimmy | 27/08/2000 |
