With Carn Glas Coire. Parked at a handy spot just south of the track from Auchterteang. Biked in, decent enough track for that. Left bike at the split 1km from the green hut. Then walked a circular walk back to the bike. stunning views of the high gorms. Tons of wildlife on these.hils05/08/2022

Up Auchterteang track on bike after parking overnight in forest track entrance a short way south on road. Biked about half way, could have gone further, to just short of track high point then pathless west over false top to cnapan a' Choire Odhair Mhoir. Took a more direct (S) line back to track, easy going. Then drove to Glen Feishie to park just North of Balachroick Good track and good path to well up but then some heather bashing to summit of Creag Ghiuthsachan.dickscroop28/05/2022

#3 of 3, nice summit, largely escaped the new snow of last 2 days. Beeline return E to col, works but nicer via the Dodd the way I cameRHW07/05/2021
Followed the track up from Auchterteang to the Nairnshire boundary then turn west over 1st top to summit, A lot of laying snow. with Big JNozzer23/01/2021
Parked near and walked in from Auchterteang on a gloriously cold and snowy day. Followed the marked tracks to the east of the summit, then cut west through deep snow to climb up the final steep slope and arrive at the small cairn. A much more interesting hill than the map suggests. Great views. With Nozzer.BigJ23/01/2021
