Any pointers please, which is the best descent, Carn Liath or the stalkers path at the far end?

I had a debate on here a while back about this, some info on that thread.

Not the loop but the traverse of the munro, trying to decide north or south.

Ace. I did North end from Tilt. Blooming tough, but fast, pull up to the top. The rest of the day was really rideable.

I do think South to North, descending the way I came up would be better/worth a try.

I did it South to North. Great descent into Tilt though you need to get off occasionally to make sure where the path is (it's that small!).
I thought the riding on the ridge would be better N to S though (highest to lowest peak).
