Doug Bartholomew on Bovnahakit 6a+, one of the fantastic easier routes that’s not on the topo.
Creag nan Cadhag (aka Stone Valley), near Gairloch, is one of the better sport crags in Wester Ross. It really does have something for everyone, with a grade range from 5+ up to 8a+. The rock is best quality gneiss and the locals love it. In fact they love it so much they’ve added lots of variations, extensions and link-ups so as to squeeze as much climbing as they can from the crag. Unfortunately this makes it a little confusing for the first time visitor. Hopefully this topo will clarify things and you’ll have no excuse for wandering off route.
