Mountain Description
Sgurr a' Bhealaich Dheirg has steep grass slopes to the S and E, and steep craggy slopes to the N and W. Its narrow rocky summit ridge runs from Sreath a Ghlas-choire to the NE to a col linking to Saileag (WNW). From the summit a short ridge leads ESE to a col at the head of Coire nan Eun which links to Aonach Meadhoin. A further long ridge, Sreath an Fhraoch-choire, rises W of the summit and runs N to the crags of Creag Ghlas. Sgurr a' Bhealaich Dheirg is normally accessed from its neighbours, Aonach Meadhoin and Saileag, but can also be ascended direct vis Meall a' Charra to the SE.

Graeme and Stephen sitting by the distinct summit cairn. Hellish weather persuaded us against camping up on the ridge and to make for the pub instead! 10/06/08
