 It is linked to the main spine of the Mamore group on its southern side by a feature called The Devil’s Ridge, which is a one kilometre undulating ridge with a few exposed sections which require care.The most difficult part is a rock gap known as "The Bad Step" with Scottish hill walker Hamish Brown commenting,

The Devil's Ridge has its own peak at the midpoint called Stob Choire a' Mhàil (990 metres) and then carries on to link to Sgor an Iubhair (Peak of the Yew; sometimes spelt Sgùrr an Iubhair), a 1001 m peak that briefly gained Munro status in 1981 only to lose it again in 1997.When viewed from the ridge, Sgor an Iubhair appears to be a separate mountain, but both the above peaks are listed as "tops" of Sgùrr a' Mhàim in the Munro Tables.
