Stob Mhic Mhartuin is located above the Devils Staircase in Glencoe. The lads and I had a great day out climbing this peak with great views of Buachaille Etive Mor for most of the ascent. As well as climbing the peak we also practised some essential winter skills.
The snow cover is extensive abd deep in Glencoe at the moment as the video on the climbnow facebook page shows. It is worth taking this into account when planning journeys.
The drive south this evening to the central belt was less than perfect with particularly difficult driving conditions around Crianlarich.
