Chno Dearg
Chno Dearg (Gaelic: A' Chnò Dhearg) is a Scottish mountain situated 25 km east of Fort William, Highland in the Lochaber area of the Highland council area.
==Overview==
Chno Dearg is situated to the east of Loch Treig in the high ground between the loch and Strath Ossian. It reaches a height of 1046 metres (3432 feet), thus qualifying as a Munro and a Marilyn. It is not regarded as a particularly striking hill, being described in the SMCs Munro guide as “a rounded and featureless hill”,〔"The Munros" Page 79 Gives this quote.〕 its convex slopes giving a monotonous climb to the summit. The neighbouring Munro of Stob Coire Sgriodain with which Chno Dearg is usually climbed is considered a more exciting hill even though it is 70 metres lower in altitude.
Chno Dearg has a considerable topographic prominence of 649 metres, being surrounded by the deep glens of Glen Spean, Loch Treig and Strath Ossian, and its summit is a fine viewpoint especially for the Creag Meagaidh group of hills to the Northeast. Another feature of the mountain is its appeal to the ski mountaineer, with its sweeping northern slopes offering a continuous five km run with 750 metres of descent from the summit.〔"The Munros, Scotland‘s Highest Mountains" Page 80 Gives details on ski mountaineering possibilities.〕 The mountains name translates from the Gaelic as “Red Nut”, however early maps give the name as Cnoc Dearg which translates as “Red Hill” and this is the correct name. The red refers to the profusion of heather on the hill.〔"The Magic of the Munros" Page 68 Gives details of name translation and meaning.〕
