Gairich
Gairich is a mountain in Scotland situated on the southern side of Loch Quoich between Glen Kingie and Glen Garry in the Lochaber district of the Highland Council Area, 25 kilometres north-northwest of Fort William.
== Overview ==
With a height of 919 metres (3015 feet), Gairich qualifies as a Munro by just four metres. Despite its relatively low height the mountain is rough and quite isolated with a substantial prominence of 552 metres〔(Database of British and Irish Hills. )〕 and is conspicuous in the view up Glen Garry. It is seen as a conical peak when viewed from the Loch Quoich dam (see picture). The mountain was initially named Scour Gairoch on the original 1891 list of Munros〔(The Munros and Tops 1891-1997. )〕 and is still occasionally called this, however it is now referred to generally as Gairich which translates from the Gaelic as ''“roaring”''〔''The Munros'' Page 147 (Gives translation as “Roaring“).〕 or ''Peak of Yelling''”〔''The High Mountains of Britain and Ireland'' Page 319 (Gives translation as "Peak of Yelling").〕 and is believed to refer to the roaring of stags in the rutting season.
