Mountain Description
|
|
|
Sgurr Thuilm and Sgurr nan Coireachan are two Munros on a long twisting ridge at the head of Glen Finnan. Sgurr Thuilm has a long ridge, Druim Coire a Bheithe, which runs S then SW to a bridge over the Allt Coire a Bheithe, which makes it the natural approach to Sgurr Thuilm summit. Sgurr Thuilm has Ridges N and NE less seldom used for ascent, although the NE ridge could provide an approach from Strathan in Glen Dessary. The final ridge runs W and this is the route to Sgurr nan Coireachan at the W end of the ridge.

No problems with a direct ascent from Glenpean bothy, but steep and a bit of a slog - no path (at least I didn't find one)
