The north face of Glas Bheinn Mhor is uniformly steep and craggy and the only sensible way to get off it is to continue along the ridge for about 1km where there is a fairly steep descent to a col - more bad news for tired legs that would much prefer to be heading back to the car in a more direct line at this point in the day. The glen that we were heading for gradually came into view and we could see traces of a path which gave me hopes of a fairly rapid stomp back down to sea level.
