captain - 2013
I've done this before in nice dry conditions. Today the Met Office forecast was wrong, so the majority of it was wet. Still a good route- definitely climbable in wet nick.

tricky to find base. great route once on it. glencoe rock and ice climbs says step right out of chimney, I did this and ended up on dirty broken rock, it is clear that it is left onto an obvious ledge. Top pitch was great

Followed Donald, Erik and Karolina. Don't know if I strayed too far right when meant to be following the edge on the 7th pitch (saw some crampon scratches, though). Got in a big mess with the ropes on one of the ledges and a hex got stuck on pitch 7.

A great day out! Remained dry all day. Superb mountain route with airy traverses. We combined this with curved ridge to take us to the top.
mauchie - AltLd - 05/Sep/10 with Derek Graham
Very pleasant. Traverse under overhang exhilarating. Final pitch OK but pro is poor.
mastiffmat - AltLd O/S - 29/Aug/10 with Maarten Krabbendam
Some bits of the route we definitely recognised from the description. Correct start, found the Heather Ledge (even if Steve did go to the top left instead of bottom right), found the recess (not sure about the bit after), definitely a chimney (my sort of pitch) then the slightly scary shuffle down the gravel before heading up the crack. Found our way to Rannoch Wall eventually.

Rain delayed start. The rock was greay in places, especially the short 3m wall after the traverse from the Heather terrace. The chimney was dripping with water and looked very greasy. More rain looked a distinct possibility so abbed off.

My second attempt at this route, having completely failed to find the start the last time. Got to the Heather Terrace when the weather turned vile, strong winds, sleet and snow. We abbed off.
