An extremely rocky minor top
by IainT  2 Oct 2018
If coming from the south note that the first cairned summit reached isn't the top. The true summit has its cairn not quite on the top and immediately beyond it you plunge back into the quartzite wilderness. Descending westwards from the col between the summit and Letterbreckaun involves negotiating bands of quartzite slabs, steep and exposed in places. Sheep tracks zigzag through, but still imvolve moves of the "do not fall here" variety. There is any amount of slabby scrambling here for an ascent on a nice sunny day.
