Mountain Description
|
|
|
Meall an Fhudair (764m) is a rough hill with many rock outcrops and two main ridges. The first running ENE to Meall nan Caora where it branches NNW to the crags of Sgairneach Mor and ESE to Troisgeach (733m). The second is a broad boggy ridge running WSW to Trosgiche (500m). Meall an Fhudair is accessible from the E via Troisgeach and Meall nan Caora or from the N via the hill track through Gleann nan Caorann.

Climbed with another workmate. A real slog - after the road junction there is no path and we had to pick our way up (steeply) to Troisgeach. Marion waited mid-way between it and Fhudair as I headed up to the summit (nice shelter cairn) and back down. Deciding that re-tracing our steps would be very tricky, we opted to head NW by Sgairneach Mor and onto the road, which eventualy took us back to the junction. Took a lot longer than planned.
