Continuing from Mullachnan Coirean along the flat ridge gives tremendous views over to Glencoe and Ben Nevis and Sgurr a Mhaim.The contrasting Red of Mullach nan Coirean and Stob Ban in its White quartzite is striking.Stob Ban looks steep and uninviting from Coire na Sleubhaich but is actualy a straight forward walk up over rough White scree.The views are stunning and arguably the most impresive of the Mamores.

I've made a video diary of my clockwise traverse of Stob Ban and Mullah nan Coirean from Glen Nevis: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3hqdn_walking-in-the-mamores-fort-william_travel

This is a spectacular mountain offering great views. The ascent is not as scary as it first looks and the final climb to the summit is easy. However, there are some steep drops so care is needed. We completed the ridge walk to Mullach nan Coirean which enables you to complete 2 munro's - an excellent ridge walk.

A most enjoyable walk if taking in the Mullach. It can become an immense day if you wish by starting at the Mullach, to Stob Ban and follow the ridge round all the way to the Devil's Ridge and then Sgurr a'Mhaim, followed by a steep descent down to the car park at Achriabhach. Navigation is fairly straightforward in poor visibility by following the ridges as indicated on the map

On of my favorites in the mamores. An excellent ascent from Polldubh through the Allt coire a'Mhusgain, with Alpine looking Eastern crags in view all the way. Be careful of immense winds on occassion over the SW ridge.

If you've gained Stob Ban from Mullach nan Coirean and intend to descend via the Allt Coire a'Mhusgain, be careful that you don't confuse the E and SW ridges. It's easily done in poor visibility :-)

An interesting descent can be made off the north ridge if you like a bit of scrambling. Once on the lower slopes the ridge widens and it's an easy trek to the roadside at Polldubh
