Description

winds of 40mph, increasing to 50mph in the day. using the path in-between liatach and beinn eigne up towards the burn lines leading to the colbelow coinneach mhor to gain height.
snow line at 600m.
the purpose of the day was cutting steps especially towards the col of beinn eigne, then doing nav on the ridge, pacing. we found that practising these skills on beinn eigne wasn't really practical, as the navigation points were fairly straight forward, however moving in steeper ground was fun. defiantly would never take a winter ML group there but good for personal movement and good discussion points.
decent 500m east from the summit of spidean coire nan clach. meeting the path and descend.

Area : Cuillin and Torridon (Liathach)

This area is on the west coast of Scotland and its most well-known mountains are probably Beinn Eighe (1010m) and Liathach (1055m). The area is bordered by Loch Maree and the A832 to the north and Glen Carron and the A890 to the south. It should not to be confused with The Cuillin which is on Skye and listed in the Western Isles region. The mountains list contains all peaks above 800m.
