Mountain Description
|
|
|
Beinn Stacath is un-named on the OS map and marked only by a trig point and its elevation (771m). It lies at the intersection of three ridges, N to Ceann na Baintighearna (701m), ENE towads Balimore, and S to Beinn Bhreac (687m). The grassy top of Beinn Stacath has few crags and is an easy walk. The northern slopes are forested, and although forest tracks go to within 1.8km of the summit they are not generally used for access. The shortest route avoiding forests is from Ballimore to the E. However the Road on the N side of the Calair Burn cannot be used as it leads into the fenced enclosure of a deer farm, and the route to the S necessitates wading across the Calair Burn. A longer but drier approach is possible from Glen Finglas to the SE

Climbed with Paula on 7/4/08. Started from Ballimore farm and took the track that followed the Calair burn, which we then crossed and began a toiling ascent on undulating terrain. The descent on the south side of the east ridge was just as demanding. The redeeming aspect of this one was the clear views at the top of every hill for miles and the showers choosing to miss us out until we were almost back at the car.
