From Mullardoch Dam, along N shore of loch mostly on path, N side of Allt Coire a' Mhaim crossing at 480m to gain SSE ridge of An Socach. Then followed the ridge line over An Riabhachan, Sgurr na Lapaich and Carn nan Gobhar. Descended E from bealach N of Mullach na Maoile to Allt Mullardoch then S to meet outward track.welshyboyo28/05/2023

Carn nan Gobhar (992m), Sgurr na Lapaich (1150m), An Riabhachan (1130m), An Socach (1069m), and included Meall Bac a' Chul-dhoire (496m) on the return for the Loch views. Solo. 22 miles/13 hours, no boat, return via loch. Most summits just in cloud but some good views just below and some sun glimpses. Bit breezy.meltdiceburg20/07/2022
Mullardoch round of all Munros and all Munro Tops. 3 day backpack.Geoff Briggs13/07/2022
Long hot day with John - made use of Angus's boat service to take us to the base of An Socach, and then did the four munros (and both of An Riabhachan's tops) back around to the dam. Blue Skies and a hot sun made for a very tiring initial ascent, and the 350m ascent up to Sgùrr na Lapaich was a killer. Turned out that 3L of water wasn't enough - doh. Anyway, we made it back to the car in just under 9H - fairly slow, but the heat made it impossible to maintain a quicker pace.mproudfoot24/07/2021
