Liathach from Loch Clair

ID: PC_JMSTRACHAN_144 DESCRIPTION: Liathach is one of the most famous of the Torridon Hills. It lies to the north of the A896 road, in the Northwest Highlands of Scotland, 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 (pronounce it 'LE-a-ach') means 'grey one', despite the fact that this mountain is made of red Torridonian sandstone.
