Mountain Description
Sgurr na Feartaig and Beinn Tharsuinn (Corbett) are two mountains of almost identical height sitting either side of Bealach Bhearnais and therefore can be climbed together. The OS map shows Sgurr na Feartaig to be a narrow rocky ridge forming the northern slopes of Bealach Bhearnais, but to the N of the summit lies a broad plateau on which lies Loch Sgurr na Feartaig indicating that the name applies to the whole mountain mass. The ascent of this mountain is easy and will logically be on the paths from W and NE that lead to the summit. The ascent from Bealach Bhearnais is steeper but not difficult.

Wild camped on the summit of this mountain as a launchpad for an assault on Lurg Mhor, Chessecake etc... Great viewpoint of the surrounding hills and really worth the extra effort for the sunset panorama across the Coulin and Torridon peaks if you're planning on camping on the triple-col to the south.
