Clach Glas/Bla-Bheinn round

Extremely minor compared with previous entries, this is very much the little brother of the Cuillin Ridge Traverse. However, the Clach Glas/Bla-bheinn Round is good practice for the real thing, with plenty of sustained scrambling and a couple of sections involving climbing of "Difficult" standard. This is a round, as opposed to a peak to peak traverse, starting and finishing at the bridge over the Allt na Dunaiche (GR:561217), Loch Slapin. The route includes the summits of Sgurr nan Each (720m), Clach Glas (786m), and Bla-bheinn (928m), and finishes with a fast descent down the East Face tourist route of the latter (4.5 miles/3800 feet of ascent).

A time of 1 hour 31 mins 53 secs was recorded on 7th July 2013 by Finlay Wild.
