Mullach Coire Mhic Fhearchair
Nearly at the summit of the highest peak in the Fisherfield area. A sensational viewpoint, as they all were to be fair. The other peak, to the right, is Beinn Tarsuinn. It was probably around this time (now being able to see the entire 'Fisherfield Round' and the distances involved) that I was exceedingly thankful not to be doing the entire lot in one go.

The summit of the Fisherfield’s highest peak - Mullach Coire Mhic Fhearchair, with Sgurr Ban beyond it, and An Teallach in the distance beyond that. Also looking down Gleann na Muice to Loch na Sealga. Shenavall bothy is down there too, somewhere, although I suspect just behind Sgurr Ban's mountainside from this angle.

A view from Beinn Tarsuinn, one of the Fisherfield peaks. The water on the left is Lochan Fada, and the peak on the right is A' Mhaighdean, and of course the famous 'tennis court' just along the ridge.

The Great Wilderness
A compressed panorama to squeeze in the whole 'Fisherfield Round' of six peaks (five munros and a corbett) surrounding Gleann na Muice. The peaks appear a lot more 'pointy' here than they are in real-life but this is the view looking more-or-less north from Beinn Tarsuinn at the head of the glen.

The other photos have been geo-tagged as on or around the summit. For less busy mountains, it can be a little hit and miss.
