From lay-by 87, using the stony track up past the small quarry to the cairn 879m on A' Bhuidheanach. Then a steep descent to a burn and up onto the plateau and trig point. Returned much the same way, avoiding the steep re-ascent of A' Bhuidheanach by a path skirting its east flank. Solo. Thin high cloud obscuring the sun most of the time. Light westerly wind, no rain.
