Sgurr Mor Far West Top

A rocky subsidiary summit perched on the extreme western edge of the Kintail ridge system above Loch Duich. At just under 600 metres, this outlying top offers a distinctive perspective over the sea lochs of the Northwest Highlands, though most walkers bypass it en route to higher ground further east.

• •The name 'Sgurr Mor' translates from Scottish Gaelic as 'big peak', though the addition of 'Far West Top' distinguishes this subsidiary summit from the main Sgurr Mor massifs found elsewhere in Kintail and across the western Highlands.
• •This summit sits within the Kintail area, whose name derives from the Gaelic 'Cinn t-Sàile' meaning 'head of the sea loch', referring to its position at the innermost reach of Loch Duich where salt water meets the mountain terrain.
• •The dual classification as both a Dodd and a Tump reflects its modest prominence and height, making it primarily of interest to peak-baggers working through these comprehensive hill lists rather than casual walkers.
