As part of a Corbett and Munro wild camp, Darren and I headed into Corriechoille and parked up beside the old disused tramway. It was a lovely day and the forecast was superb. We packed up and set off at 1445 in the heat of the day so the muscles were warmed up pretty quickly. It was a great path heading into the Lairig Leacach and before long, we took to the lower parts of Cruach Innse. It was only 400m of ascent from here and I assured Darren it would be straightforward. It hadn't looked steep but we were fair pechin'. We eventually topped out to stupendous views over t the Easain and Mheadhoin Munros as well as over to Sgurr Innse and the Grey Corries. We didn't linger and began the trek down to the bealach at 550m. From here, Sgurr Innse looked tasty and we fair roasted up the steep wee path and on to its summit. Now, the book says to head SE towards a shelf, which takes you down safely past the crags. Did we do that? Nope. We headed South and then West, which took us to an interesting downclimb. As we looked back at our descent, it was clear that we had missed the shelf by a considerable degree and that we had chosen a 'direttisima' route off the hill. Safe down and looking back, Sgurr Innse was a stunning hill. Definitely one of my favourites.
