βeta: In Cuillin Ridge Traverse Guide (Adrian Trendall), the descent from Clach Glas is wrong. Section ii to iii descends far to low on the west side of the ridge, do not copy this. Instead, stay higher and take a more gentle descent a bit west, then back east, to the bealach. The diagram shows a very dangerous way, if followed to the letter it would be at least Hard Severe, in descent, on poor quality wet rock.
