Just a little comment on the route from Stob a' Choire Odhair to Stob Ghabhar. Rather than going up the ridge from point NN244457 I went north west (I only needed to use my hands once when finding my way through the broken ground) to cross the burn at around NN237461 and then up a grassy slope onto the ridge at NN242465. The advantage of this route is that you don't have to retrace your steps when coming off Stob Ghabhar. The walk up the ridge to the summit of Stob Ghabhar is delightful. I enclose a photo of Stob Ghabhar from the ridge from NN 242465.
