	Liathach - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Liathach is one of the most famous of the Torridon hills of Scotland.
		It lies to the north of the A896 road, in the Highlands, and has two peaks of Munro status: Spidean a' Choire Leith at the east of the main ridge, and Mullach an Rathain at the western end of the mountain.
		Liathach conveys an aura of impregnability when seen from below, as the slopes rise up in a series of near vertical rocky terraces.

		The Torridon Hills (Liathach, Beinn Alligin and Beinn Eighe) and their surroundings must be some of the most scenic of all the Scottish mountains.
		Liathach is probably the most rugged and 'spiky' of the three but at the same time the simplest to accomplish.

		Behind the left end of the ridge of Liathach is Beinn Dearg.
		While Liathach is unquestionably the grimmest of the Torridon giants, with three of its tops over 3000 ft and its exposed, airy, narrow Pinnacles ridge, strenuous and nerve-testing for most mountaineers, its other two mountains, Beinn Alligin (3232 ft) and Ben Dearg (which only just fails to reach 3000 ft) also require care and respect.

	Alan's Munros Diary
		I was staying in Gairloch for the week with Trisha and was keen to climb Liathach as it was one of the most challenging of the Munros I still had to do.
		I'd read the guides and knew there were two ways of doing the traverse between the two peaks: I could either scramble directly over the Am Fasarinen pinnacles or I could bypass them on the southern side of the ridge by a path which was described variously as 'narrow', 'eroded' and 'dangerous'.
		From there I looked up at the intimidating bulk of Liathach and was a bit disconcerted to see that the upper slopes appeared to have a light dusting of snow on them.

		This mountain is the largest in the vicinity of Loch Torridon a sea loch(lake) on the west coast of Scotland.
		Liathach is one of the more worthy targets of this pastime akin for example to an ascent of Crestone Needle or some such peak in Colorado.
		It can snow in June and during the winter Liathach is a challenging climb with the usual alpine gear.

		The hill has two peaks of Munro status: Spidean a Choire Leith at the east of the main ridge, and Mullach an Rathain at the western end of the mountain.
		This should not be regarded as an easy option however, the path is exceedingly exposed, and there is much erosion at points where it crosses any of a series of gully.

		There are a couple of sections of scrambling even before you reach the corrie and the lower slopes announce very clearly what kind of hill Liathach is and that everyone is in for a dramatic day.
		It might be an interesting alternative, little travelled route and little seen view, but for the first time visitor I would recommend the well worn path since it leads to the very Eastern end of the Liathach ridge thus allowing a full traverse.

		The couple [a male and a female in their mid 40s] were attempting to ascend a 180m route known as North Flank, but experienced route finding difficulties.
		She was later transferred to Raigmore Hospital in Inverness by a helicopter from RAF Lossiemouth where it was announced that she had died from her injuries.

		The forecast was not so good, we had already had two big days on the hill and we were thinking of returning home for the weekend.
		However there was a bit of blue sky around so we opted for a climb up Liathach to explore - if not traverse - the ridge.

		There is supposedly a bypass path round them but I've heard this is worse than the actual scrambling.
		The mountain is such an impressive giant that you kind of assume that the scrambling must be scary too.
		Liathach will still be there next year - and for many more after that - so you'll get there.

		Liathach's, presence is awesome for it overwhelms the senses as it suddenly appears to fill the skyline ahead, climbing vertically from the floor of the glen and boasts three Munro's.
		Beinn Eighe is of sandstone bedrock capped by a mass of quartzite which has weathered to create the characteristic white screes; this loose covering gives the impression that the mountain is snowcapped.
		This is seen to best effect from the shores of Loch Clair, whose clear waters also provide the perfect foil to the magnificence of Liathach.

		It is rated because of its sheer bulk, this is noticed when traveling along the glen and one first gains sight of it.
		In Winter Liathach is a very serious proposition indeed - there have been many fatalities over the years.
		Even the traverse of the Main Ridge is (GRADE II), and the by pass path is considered unsafe, as it banks out and is very avalanche prone.

		We climbed a steep but easy snow slope to the right of the Triple Buttress to gain the ridge for the first time.
		From here we could admire the iced up climbing routes on the buttress itself on one side and the incredible ridge of Liathach just a couple of kilometers away on the other.
		From this last summit the views were exceptional, especially looking towards that other great Torridon mountain, Liathach.
