Mountain Description
Stob a' Choire Odhair a less complex hill than its its grand neighbour Stob Gabhar. Stob a' Choire Odhair is attached to its smaller sister peak, Beinn Toaig (834m) by a col on its SE slopes. The two hills have parallel NE ridges, which flank Coire Odhair, and SW ridges which diverge to produce the E slopes of Coire Toaig. The ascent routes for Stob a' Choire Odhair are from the path through Coire Toaig to the col between Stob a' Choire Odhair and Beinn Toaig or from the bealach at the head of Coire Toaig up the SW ridge of Stob a' Choire Odhair. This hill has fairly steep slopes with rocky outcrops, especially on N face.
