Description

With 2 cars linking either end with some strong hill going friends we completed the 9 fannaich munros in some adverse weather. strong cold winds and rain mostly light but constant after the first top. I was the main navigator of the group as I held the best map 1:25000 harvey with a friend on 1:50000 OS as back up stayed in the rucksack.
An enjoable challenge and a hard day managing food, staying warm and navigating efficiently.

Area : Loch Maree to Loch Broom and The Fannaichs

This area contains four main sub-regions: An Teallach, The Fannaichs, Kinlochewe & Letterewe. The highest Munro is Sgurr Mor, part of The Fannaichs range, at a height of 1110m. The impressive Slioch (981m), although not the tallest, is described by the SMC Munros Guide as being ‘one of the great sights of the Northern Highlands’ and well worth a visit. This area sits to the north of the A832 and is almost completely devoid of human habitation.
