Mountain Description
|
|
|
Sgor Mor is the highest top of a sprawling mountain that occupies the space between Glen Lui, Glen Luibeg and Glen Dee. The main ridge runs WSW to ENE with Sgor Mor at the W end and Sgor Dubh (741m) at the E end. The slopes at either end of this ridge are steep and craggy, especially below Sgor Dubh. To the N of the main ridge there are gentle slopes down to Glen Luibeg and there is one subsidiary top Creagan nan Gabhar (722m) to the NW of Sgor Mor To the S of the main ridge there is a broad plateau, 600-650m in altidude, and on the edge of the plateau two more subsiduray tops Carn Mor (634m) and Carn an 'lc Duibhe (630m). Due to the network of paths/tracks around it, Sgor Mor can be ascended from many directions.
