Mountain Description
Glas Bheinn Mhor is located between Stob Gabhar and Stob Coir an Albannaich. It is a steep sided hill with a craggy N face and a steep S face. The safe ascent routes are on the ridge from Ben Starav which can also be reached by the path from Coileitir by the Allt nam Mheirleach, or from the bealach between Glas Bheinn Mhor and Stob Coir an Albannaich. The shortest routes are from Glen Etive, but routes from Loch Tulla to the E are possible.
