Mountain Description
This is the Carn Dearg (768m) which lies to the S of Gleann Eachach. Carn Dearg has a conical top from which ridges run SW to Sron a' Ghoill, and SE to Carn Dearg Beag (680m) where this ridge branches S to Creag Corrag and E to Glas Beinn (648m). The lower S slopes of Carn Dearg are very steep, but a less steep ascent is posssible from the junction of Glen Turret and Gleann Eachach, WSW of the summit or by the Allt na Glas Bheinne to the SE. The S slopes are steep with unusual shelves known as the parallel roads, which are believed to be the shorelines of an ancient loch.
