Fellow go4awalkers who have already walked, climbed, summited & bagged Sgor Gaoith
Mark Davidson walked up on May 25th, 2015 [with] Alan [weather] Sunny Spells but very very cold & windy for late May - Lots of snow fields on the tops
Bay Wan climbed it on October 24th, 2013 [from/via/route] Start from Fenshie Bridge [with] Cocoa Mountain Puppy [weather] Dry & fairly calm, but very misty on the summit. - The OS map does not show a path but there is a faint one to the summit, I decided to go across the plateau which in clear weather would be easy to navigate however please make sure you're prepared for 'usual' mountain weather & be confident in your map reading skills or have a good GPS system as it is easy to get lost otherwise!
Linda Mckeogh, Simon Duerden, Paul Booth, Trevor Williams and Phyllis Mcgibbon have all walked, climbed & bagged Sgor Gaoith.
