From the Wikipedia article

Buachaille Etive Beag (, Scottish Gaelic: Buachaille Èite Beag, 'little herdsman of Etive') is a mountain between Glen Coe and Glen Etive in the Highlands of Scotland. It lies west of Buachaille Etive Mòr, its larger neighbour, from which it is separated by a high mountain pass called Lairig Gartain. Like its neighbour, Buachaille Etive Beag is a ridge about 3 km long that runs in a southwest–northeast direction. It has two peaks of Munro status: Stob Dubh (958 m) at the southern end, and Stob Coire Raineach (925 m) in the middle. The latter became a Munro in the 1997 revision of Munro's Tables, in which all tops with a topographic prominence of more than 500 feet (150 m) were promoted to full Munro status. The smaller peak at the northern end is Stob nan Cabar.
