Mountain Description
|
|
|
Aonach Meadhoin and its neighbour Sgurr an Fuarail (987m, not a Munro) are peaks on a narrow curving ridge. The N face of the ridge, overlooking Coire nan Eun is steep and craggy and the S face into Coire na Cadha steep but with fewer crags. The main ridge connects to Sgurr an Fuarail to the ENE and Sgurr a Bhealaich Dheirg to the WNW. There is a NNE ridge to Bealach a' Choinnich, and the S slopes of Ciste Dhubh. There is also a ridge SSE from Sgurr an Fhuarain to the W of Coire na Cadha, which is steep and rocky but is a possible ascent route from Glen Sheil.

Began the ascent of this hill from the roadside approx 055115, next to a small plantation. The ascent is steep up the south ridge of Aonach Meadhoin but the views from the top are excellent. The continuation to Sgurr a' Bhearlaich Dheirg is via an interesting narrow ridge.
