Description

started off from the car park on the A82 took a long steady walk up coire nan lochan up to the three small lochs moved on to the upper northeast section of gearr aonach very windy and wet at this point moved round westerly on the ridge up to the summit carried on for the decent stopped to see if we could drop onto a gully but the snow pack was to unstable so went round past south buttress and pinnacle buttress and moved back down to the 3 small loch s before heading down coire nan lochan

Area : Glencoe South (Loch Linnhe To Loch Etive)

The southern side of Glen Coe includes some very well-known mountains and can be split into two groups; the ones you can see from the A82 and the ones you can’t. Included in the former group is Buachaille Etive Mor, Buachaille Etive Beag, the Three Sisters and the Ballachulish Horseshoe, and in the latter, three Munros between Glen Creran and Glen Etive (Sgor na h-Ulaidh, Beinn Fhionnlaidh and Beinn Sgulaird). With huge amounts of climbing and walking in summer and winter, this area is also home to a large cairn built for Queen Victoria, or so the story goes. Includes all major peaks above 600m.
