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.
Due to a late start, caught the gondola up & walked in from the upper station onto Annoch mor. Practised snow trenching and snow pits on route up. Once on the main plateau vis closed in but still reminded warm, Nav down onto saddle where we looked at the head walls & Avalanche debris in the main gully on the west. Carried on up the ascent to Annoch Beag maintaining bearings and trying to keep eyes on the horizon line with the vis coming in. At summit of Beag decided to turn around & head back via the same route due to time appreciation & last Gondola down.
