Is this new since the Scottish Winter Climbs guidebook? Is the description below still accurate?
"Approach: From the Achallader Farm car park (NN 321 443). Walk around the barn opposite the house, then go through a gate to reach the moor. Above the farm cross the railway by a bridge. Follow the west bank of the Allt Coire Achaladair for about 1hr towards Coire Daingean, then head diagonally right to pass under the end of the north ridge, aiming for a small cone shaped hillock. Enter the subsidiary corrie under the cliffs (4km, 1hr 30mins)."
