The Creag Meagaidh area is great at this time of year. The cliffs of Coire Ardair are hidden from the road and well worth the walk, rising upto 450m from the loch below. Assuming it has been a "good" winter they provide fantastic opportunities for winter climbing, otherwise they are likely to give a personal demonstration of the power of avalanches! A window at the end allows mere mortals (i.e. those of us still with brains) to walk up and onto the great summit plateau.

Saturday 2 February 2002 Possibilities include Creag Meagaidh and Carn Liath, Beinn Teallach and Beinn a'Chaorainn, and also Beinn a'Chlachair, Geal Charn and Creag Pitridh. You will need maps Landranger 34 and 42.
