| From the phone box via the muddy track a few yards to the SW, which leads to a miniature col SW of Barr an t-Sithiche. Onwards across boggy new plantings to the lovely ridge of Barr nan Damh. The summit outcrop, a grassy knoll 20 yards SW and the outcrop (up which I scrambled clumsily) all seem to be about the same elevation, with LizH's NE top around 3 feet lower. | Nick Down1 | 07/04/2023 |

| Barr an t-Sithiche, Barr nan Damh, Barr an Eich, Barr Mor, Barr an Longairt from the phone box and back via the old Lachlan Castle and the road. ATV and sheep tracks to follow for much of the way. Wintry with sun breaking through at times. | sclater | 24/01/2021 |
| 2 out of 5 of these small hills. | Missphoton | 24/01/2021 |
| Parked by the phone box, up Barr an t-Sithiche first, then followed an ATV track through a gate, across boggy ground and up to a second gate near the final rise to the summit. Possible that the tip of a large erratic boulder could be as high as the rock outcrop. Also visited the NE end of the ridge, through a pair of gates at the col, as this point also looked as high. Great viewpoint over the loch. | LizH | 14/10/2020 |
