Mountain Description
|
|
|
Stob Coir' an Albannaich is a large and complex craggy mountain separated from Glas Beinn Mhor to the SW by a bealach from which it can be ascended. The more direct route to the summit is from the bridge over the River Etive SE onto Beinn Chaorach then round Coire Glas on easy slopes to the summit. A longer route is possible from Loch Tulla in the E (parking is available at Victoria Bridge) but as this leads through boggy ground it is less attractive. Finally a descent N is possible from the E ridge 500m E of the summit to Meall Tarsuinn (875m) then on to Meall nan Eun.

Stob Coir' an Albannaich and Meall nan Eun
|
Moderate climb on grassy slopes leading to craggy tops. Crags can be avoided, but careful navigation is required between peaks and this will be difficult in poor visibility.

Ascend Beinn Chaorach SE via obvious gully in hillside above trees behind Coileitir. Cross bridge and turn left then take first gate in deer fence on right and faint path leads to corner fence/gully (easy to clamber through). Faint Path zig zags across stream as ascend steeply to 550m contour and angle eases slightly, stream/gully leads almost directly to Beinn Chaorach summit. Excellent views into Coire Glas as cross plateau to S.C.an A.summit (3hrs). highly rewarding after ascent.

Climbed along with Meall nan Eun then decended via Glen Ceiltein which was very boggy due to melting snow. Due to winter conditions it took just over 8 hours to complete. Take care when parking the car as each side of the car park is very boggy. I have had to tow people out on previous visits.
