Mountain Description
|
|
|
Mullach Coire Mhic Fhearchair is a remote peak with boggy approaches. The mountain is steep sided with its summit in the form of a triangular pyramid. It is linked to Sgurr Ban by its N ridge and from the col on this ridge, there are easy slopes to the path from Loch a' Bhraoin. It is also connected to Beinn Tarsuinn via Meal Garbh on its S ridge. From Beinn Tarsuinn easy slopes lead to the path to Incheril at the E tip of Loch Fada. A third ridge leads SE to craggy Sgurr Dubh which form the E slopes of Coire Mhic Fhearchair.

Anyone who is thinking of "doing" the Fisherfield hills from the Corrie Hallie end should go now as the water level is unbelievably low making the crossing so much easier. Even the route across the Strath itself, which is normally a very boggy area, we found to be very easy going. However the downside to this is that there is very little water to be found at ridge level and although we had take what we thought was ample we ended up rationing our supply till we got a good stream coming off Beinn Tarsuinn.

29th June 2007. We climbed this from the col with Sgurr Ban. The route is clear and not as difficult as it looks from a distance. We descended from the east top (981 m) by the broad but stony north-east ridge, then down the wider and more southerly of the two sets of sloping quartzite slabs. We followed the north shore of Loch a’ Bhraoin to the A832.
