Mountain Description
|
|
|
Sgurr nan Clach Geala is one of the group known as the Fannaichs.The mountain is a triangular pyramid but the shape is less obvious at the summit where the E slopes have eroded to produce a high corrie. The slopes of Sgurr nan Clach Geala are moderate to steep with the E slopes into Coire Mor being the steepest. Sgurr nan Clach Geala is separated from Sgurr Breac by a bealach (550m) through which runs a path, from Loch a' Bhraoin to Loch Fannich, offering easy access to its W slopes. The narrow S ridge leads to Sgurr nan Each and the broad N ridge to Meall a' Chrasgaidh and also to Sgurr Mhor via Carn na Criche.

Climbed on a good spring day, with plenty of snow. Climbed along with Sgurr nan Each and Meall nan Crasgaidh great views through 360 degrees. A long but very rewarding day, you will not be disappointed.

Agree with first comment.The north-east ridge under snow is steep and demanding.
We found snow in early May .Views into the Cadha na Guite are some of the best in the North-West.
