Mountain Description
|
|
|
Beinn an Dothaidh has a curved summit plateau with three tops the centre top being the summit. From the summit plateau, a ridge run S to the col above Coire an Dothaidh, which connects to Beinn Dorain and is the usual ascent route from Bridge of Orchy. There is a W ridge which curves N, and offers a possible ascent route from Achallader, and a SW ridge which separates Coire Daingean from Coire a Ghabhlach. The col on this ridge connects Beinn an Dothaidh to the S ridge Beinn Achalader. This col not only gives routes between these two mountains but gives possible access to Beinn Manach to the E.
|
|

Climbed after Beinn Dorain, and lost the path once the mud started. Headed for the peak on the right - which turned out to be the South top. Thankfully the cloud had cleared and the path to the summit was obvious. Gave the West top a miss and headed back down. The descent from the col was VERY tricky, but did not spoil a fine day out.
