This area covers the mountains between Fort William, Loch Leven (to the south) and Loch Treig (to the east). The area includes Ben Nevis and Carn Mor Dearg, The Mamores, The Aonachs and The Grey Corries. An impressive 20 Munros are split equally by Glen Nevis and the waters of Abhainn Rath. Relatively accessible from the A82, these mountains hold some classic walking and climbing routes such as The Ring of Steall in the Mamores and Point Five Gully on Ben Nevis. Includes all major peaks above 600m.
Starting from Lower Falls car park following Allt Coire a Mhusgain to Coire Mhusgain and then onto the summit of Stob Ban. Then across wetern snow fields to climb the ridge up to the summit of Mullach nan Coirean. The descent was down NE ridge into forest at Sron Riabhach and the Lower Falls car park. Avalanche danger severe due to high Easterly winds and so extensive crossloading on NE to SW aspects. Ice on narrow path by the Allt Coire a Mhusgain gave interest on the ascent route.
