Official information

Sgùrr Èilde Mòr is a prominent peak in the Mamores mountain range, known for its steep, rocky ascent and stunning panoramic views from the summit. It is often included in challenging hiking routes, particularly the traverse of the Mamores ridge.

From the Wikipedia article

Sgùrr Eilde Mòr or Sgùrr Èilde Mhòr (in Gaelic) is a mountain in the Mamores range of the Grampian Mountains, Scotland. It is 6 kilometres north-east of Kinlochleven. It is a steep, conical peak of scree and quartzite boulders, capped with a layer of schist. With a height of 1010 m (3314 ft) it is classed as a Munro, so is popular with hillwalkers. It is most commonly climbed from Kinlochleven by way of a stalker's path which leads to a col at Coire an Lochan, and then by either the south or the west ridge - both routes involving an ascent of steep, bouldery terrain.
