North and east of the A835 is the area from Loch Broom to Easter Ross. This road is also the main access point for walking and climbing in the area which contains seven Munros, the highest being Beinn Dearg (1084m). The Ben Wyvis ridge stretches from southwest to northeast from the road towards Loch Glass. Mountains south of Ben Wyvis are in the Glen Cannich to Glen Carron area, whilst those to the west are in the Loch Maree to Loch Broom area.
With M. A bright autumn day with wintry showers. Am Faochagzch from Dirrie Mor. Tried 2 different crossings of river, out & back, but thigh deep both ways. Snow down to 550m. Some fierce snow showers on ridge to summit.
