After staying at Crianlarich Youth Hostel. With two friends. From the A82 road south of Crianlarich, following track towards Coire Earb. At the end of the track we ascended to the summit of a minor top (Meall Dhamh) and hence to the summit of Cruach Ardrain. Two of us continued to Beinn Tulaichean. We met up again en route to Beinn a’ Chroin.
