Fuar Tholl, Summit in Northwest Highlands, Scotland.
The mountain Fuar Tholl reaches 907 meters in elevation and features a prominent rocky summit with steep cliffs along its northern face point.
The mountain received its nickname Wellington's Nose due to the resemblance of its summit ridge to the profile of Arthur Wellesley, Duke of Wellington.
The name Fuar Tholl originates from Gaelic language, translating to Cold Hole, referring to the deep eastern corrie that receives minimal sunlight throughout the year.
The primary climbing route starts at Achnashellach station and follows a path to Torridon before turning toward the mountain's bealach between Sgorr Ruadh.
The Mainreachan Buttress on Fuar Tholl's western slope contains 500-foot-high cliffs that serve as a premier destination for ice climbing in Scotland.
