The mouth of the corrie gives a view of the cliffs and the distinctive feature of a massive rock slab, which is covered by snow in winter and is prone to avalanche. |
Once I had past the subsidiary top of Carn Dearg Meadhonach I took advantage of a long snow glissade down a shallow corrie that dropped me down into the glen. |
From the large car park on the north-west side of Loch Laggan, head along the path towards the corrie which skirts Aberarder Farm. |
Its northern flank swooped up from the corrie floor at a vertiginous angle. |
South of that lies the corrie of the pap, Coire na Ciche, taking its name the great rock that gazes down into the dizzy depths below. |
Our original intention was to climb the slopes north of the lochan and so avoid the crags that form the corrie walls. |
