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.
Me and a friend hired a guide to do the Ledge Route, mainly because we were concerned about route finding. We had a fantastic day. I found the scrambling straightforward and great fun. We didn't use ropes. The wind picked up to about 40-45mph when we reached the start of the CMD, but it subsided a bit as we walked along the ridge.
