Once onto the ridge of A' Chailleach, Toman Còinnich and Sgùrr Breac you have multiple options of shortening or extending your route. The shortest option being cutting back down the valley having dropped off Sgùrr Breac, but note that this is still tough going.

Whichever option is chosen, the pull back along the valley to pick up your outward skin tracks near the head of Loch a'Bhraoin is not a straight forward skin, especially in the notoriously unpredictable snow conditions. Although not technically difficult at any stage this is still a strenuous day out.
