Mountain Description
|
|
|
Beinn Iutharn Mhor lies at the head of Glen Ey and its summit is at the junction of five broad ridges. To the W of the summit, short ridges run W, SW and S. To the E, the summit ridge branches to give a short E ridge and a longer NE ridge. Most of the upper slopes are steep and covered in rocks, although there are no crags. Most slopes are fairly steep but accessible with care.

Climbed as part of a round of the Glen Ey hills. Beinn Iutharn Mhor might best be suited to be climbed on it's own if you can cycle down Glen Ey. Otherwise, there is quite a drop from An Socach and the slopes to the west of this Munro towards Carn Bhac are initially very steep and then covered in endless peat hags. We had sunny views for the first two tops but the main summit was one with a compass in hand and heads down into the biting wind. Typical spring weather.
