| Beinn Eighe west to east starting from Cromasaig. Returned to the A896 via Coire Mhic Fhearchair & Coire Dubh Mor, before cycling back to Cromasaig. | geoffh12 | 15/09/2023 |
| From parking near Loch Bharranch. Up the path into clag. Above 800 metres superb inversion. Up to trig point and the summit of Spidean Coire nan Clach then out and back to 2 eastern tops. Very rough hills. Then headed west to Coinneach Mhor both tops. Then headed down to Sail Mhor. Got over halfway down realised this was a rock climb didn’t want to be unable to reverse route and hadn’t read guides so headed back up and then on to Ruadh-stac Mor and down the scree gully to Coire Mhic Fhearchair. Beautiful place did think about going up Sail Mhor from here. Felt tired so just headed out and back to the car. Will come back to do Sail Mhor. Time taken 10 hours 25 minutes for 15.05 miles and 5456 feet of ascent. | isabelle | 04/06/2023 |

| From Sgurr Ban over the Black Carls. Sensational situations reached by Grade 1 scrambling. We topped the highest of 'the Black Regiment'. A good antidote to any tiredness as we had traversed all the Beinn Eighe tops today when we reached Sgurr nan Fhir Duibhe. Got a lift back to my car from Cromasaig, squeezing into a space between climbing gear so I could pick up my brother. Met him still walking- down the main road- to meet me! | pwheeler | 23/05/1992 |
