Mountain Description
Creag Pitridh is a compact mountain, rocky in places and with a conical summit. It has three ridges; a broad NE ridge, a W ridge leading to the crags of Sgurr an t-Saighdeir, and a broad SE ridge forming a bealach with Geal Charn to the E. The W and N slopes are steep and craggy, and the summit is almost surrounded by crags. However to the SW of the summit there are easy slopes down to the path in Coire Pitridh.
