Ben More

Ben More (Scottish Gaelic: Beinn Mhòr, "the great mountain") is a mountain in the Breadalbane region of the southern Scottish Highlands, near Crianlarich. Rising to 1,174 metres (3,852 ft), it is a Munro and is the highest of the so-called Crianlarich Hills to the south-east of the village. It is separated from Stob Binnein (1,165 m or 3,822 ft) by the Bealach-eadar-dà-Bheinn, "col between two mountains". It is the highest peak in the Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park. Ben More's north side contains a long-lasting snow patch, which – uniquely in the Southern Highlands – is named on a 1:25000 Ordnance Survey map, and is called the Cuidhe Chrom (crooked wreath), on account of the shape it forms in late spring/early summer. This patch frequently lasts until well into June and sometimes July. The similar name Cuidhe Cròm appears as a summit near Lochnagar.
