I presume you mean the one that appears to go directly to Beck Head, rather than following the ridge line? I'm not convinced that it exists in real life; it could just be one those rights of way that the OS seem obliged to draw from time to time. I've only ever used the other route either up or down.

I suppose it's a bit late for you to recce it now!
