Topograhy Sgurr Choinnich Beag
I visited the Guardian website. Their photo is almost certainly taken from Carn Mor Dearag 1223m west to the summit plateau of Ben Nevis 1344m. That would make the next peak across Glen Nevis Mullach nan Coirean 939m, or perhaps Stob Ban 999m to its left. Cannot be sure.
In any event, Sgurr Choinnich Beag 963m is a few miles east of the photo, the third Munroe of a ridge that runs SE then E on the north side of the Water of Nevis. The OS map Outdoor Leisure 38 (Ben Nevis and Glen Coe) shows the south and southeast aspect of this hill have but few crags above a long and relatively smooth slope. The west to north to east aspects have steep crags that drop to a rocky coire, or ravine. If Mr. Potter bounced off a few low crags on his way to rolling or sliding down the smooth slope, especially if it had fresh snow, then his great good fortune and medical condition are more understandable and less miraculous. All the same, he is most exceeding lucky.
The smily face is Mr. Potter at home in Glasgow.
