Cnoc Iochtair is the first step on the 'staircase' to Beenkeeragh, and as such, not many will approach it as we did, from northern outlier Skregbeg. From Skregbeg's saddle to Skregmore, veer SW, and although this approach looked steep and scrambly, it's a straightforward ascent to the rocky summit.
