Mountain Description
|
|
|
Mam Sodhail and Carn Eighe are twin peaks on a crescent shaped ridge of mountains which enclose Gleann a' Choilich. Mam Sodhail has a triangular pyrimidal summit cone at the convergence of three ridges. The longest ridge runs ESE 3.5km to Sgurr na Lapaich (1036m, not the Munro!) and is a possible ascent route. To the N a short narrow ridge connects to Carn Eighe. The third ridge (SSW) leads to two longer ridges (SE) which enclose Coire Leachavie and Corie Coulavie. A path in Coire Leachavie ascends to the SSW ridge 500m from the summit.

The route over Mam Sodhail, Carn Eighe and Bheinn Fhionnlaidh is a long but rewarding day. A bike cane be used up to the foot of Sgurr na Lapaich before taking the good path up towards the top of Mam Sodhail. The last part of the ascent becomes quite rocky but once at the giant cairn all the effort becomes worthwhile with great views of the Afrric and Mullardoch hills. Carn Eighe is less than an hours walking from the summit and to inlcude Findlay's hill will require a tiring re-ascent of either of the aforementioned peaks.
