Glas Leathad Mor (Ben Wyvis)—An Cabar

"With three friends. From Wyvis car park just south of Garbat. We used the path that ascends on the north side of Allt a' Bhealaich Mhòir. The path has had considerable work done on it. However, the path was to a large extent covered with snow. It was icy low down and had been trampled down so progress was easy. We reached the summit of An Cabar. It was a beautiful day with superb views of snow covered parks, especially the Fannichs. We continued over the various tops of Glas Leathad Mòr to the main top. We descended north and on to Tom a' Chòinnich. It was very cold. We opted to descend WSW eventually following Allt na Bana-mhorair on the NW side through forest. Going was rather tedious due to the soft snow which had not been trodden on. We reached the road a little north of Garbat. A really good day, enjoyed by everybody." — peter43 • Dec 6, 2008

"With my son, James. From Garbat we went along a forest track to NH421694, where the track ends. Hence by break in forestry (faint path) across moorland to Meallan Don, shoulder of Carn Gorm and up stalkers’ path to Tom a’ Chòinnich, and then to Glas Leathad Beag and Fiaclach*. We returned to the N of Glas Leathad Beag and to the S of Tom a’ Chòinnich to Glas Leathad Mor (highest point of Ben Wyvis) (trig point in shelter). We went on to An Cabar. Descent was straight down to break in forest leading to track starting at NH422678 which took us back to the car. Initially it was warm, becoming cold. Continuous slight snow/hail falling on summit areas. Snow patches above 800m. Good views in all directions. *Subsequently the name of this top was changed to Meall nan Bradan Leathan." — peter43 • May 16, 1987
