Named after Coire Meadhon, the 'middle corrie' on its eastern side, Stob a' Choire Mheadhoin rises about 850 m straight out of Loch Treig at an average angle of over 30 degrees. It's only about 10 m lower than Stob Coire Easain, 1 km away across a col, yet it has been a Munro since the first tables in 1891. Seen from the Laggan Dam it looks like a cone, and a cairn marks the top.
