10095 Am Balg f
Brian Ewing was the first to the summit followed by myself with route help from Bob and Rick. Landed on east side with North Coast Sea Tours (Kylesku based). Ascended sloping rock shelf in a southerly direction from the middle of the island on east side then once up rock ramp scrambled up broken terrain to summit plateau. Lovely island with good amount of vegetation on summit.

Notes
- Data: Database of British and Irish Hills v18.2
- Maps: We use OS mapping for England, Scotland, Wales, and the Isle of Man. Sadly, Channel Islands, Northern (OSNI) and Southern Ireland (OSI) mapping isn't available online, so we use Openstreetmap.
