The Buachaille Etive Mor (aka Stob Dearg) is a magnificent mountain

of four distinct peaks standing at the head of Glen Etive and

overlooking the north-west corner of Rannoch Moor. The best known

view of the mountain is from the north and east, from where the

great rocky cone of Stob Dearg is the outstanding feature of the

mountain. Extending south-west from Stob Dearg, a 7-kilometre long

ridge goes over two Tops, Stob na Doire and Stob Coire Altruim, and

ends at Stob na Broige, another very steep and rocky peak

overlooking lower Glen Etive. This rocky tower guards the entrance

to Glen Coe. I took this shot at the very beginning of a single

track road leading down to Glen Etive. There is a small bridge over

the Coupal River and few steps off the road you can find this place -

with several small waterfalls and this beautiful mountain in the

background. Please see the LARGE version. Your comments/critiques

are much appreciated.

I've been at this location many times over the last Five years - A very good shot Thanks for the Quality of Photography
