Stob Coire Sgriodian and Chno Dearg
Found a place to park, and off we went. This is the start of Sron na Garbh-bheinne, which guards Stob Coire Sgriodian. The waterfalls were doing well. |
|
A brief reprise from the wet. Looking back across Glen Spean toward Beinn Teallach? |
|
Nearly on top of our first and steepest challenge, Sron na Garbh-bheinne. Loch Trieg just visible down there and presumably that is Beinn Chlianaig in the background - not a munro but quite big. |
|
Almost caught a glimpse of Stob a' Choire Mheadhoin on the other side of Loch Trieg through the rain. |
Steep and wet, what a combination |
Not really brightening up, unfortunately |
|
Told you. |
The summit of Stob Coire Sgriodian. We spent less time here than you did reading this. It wasn't very nice! |
This is more like it, though sadly this is just a top at 960m, reached after scaling the munro. |
Finally the mist cleared, and we could find out just where we were. |
Lo and behold, we had come the right way, and that is Chno Dearg, the next hill. |
|
Just come down from the right to this bealach between the hills, too misty to make out too much. Beinn na Lap is out there somewhere too. |
|
Almost a view of the cliff below Meall Garbh. That is more likely to be Beinn na Lap in the background this time! |
And almost a view of Stob Coire Sgriodian, it was one of those sort of days. |
Top of Chno Dearg, not much of a hill, but we did it. |
|
The way home. Car is down there in the trees. |
|
It did clear up a bit eventually. Loch Laggan with Lochan na H-Earba on the right, and Creag Meagaidh on the left. |
|
And to the right of Lochan na H-Earba we got a view of Creag Pitridh and Geal Charn that we climbed recently. |
|
Another waterfall down the Allt Chaorach Mor |
Final/only view of Sron na Garbh-bheinne. |
