Mountain Description
|
|
|
Stob Choire Claurigh is located at the E end of the Grey Corries Ridge within a cluster of peaks. Its slopes are boulder clad and there are many crags, particularly E and N of the summit. A short ridge WSW connects to Stob a Choire Leith (1105m) and a short N ridge to Stob Coire Ceannain (1123m). A third ridge curves SSE to connect to Stob Ban (977m). Ascent is possible via these three ridges, and once below the summit crags there are easy slopes NW to Coire Choimhlidh and N to Ruigh na Gualainn.

|
A fairly long day with some exposure on the ridges. The Grey Corries are a classic ridge walk on rocky terrain, with excellent views of the Aonachs, with Carn mor Dearg and Ben Nevis behind, plus the Easains and the Mamores.
