From Strathcarron Station, using the grit track up Glen Taodail to a bridge, then the stalkers' path up to Loch nan Creadha. Then rough pathless hiking over a series of dips and rises, and up between two sets of crags to the summit. Return by outward route. Solo. Evening hike in good weather, with a fresh ENE wind. Red deer; golden eagle.
