Poem. Oh, Hebridean Sea, when did you capture me? A long time ago I saw your silver sheen, broken by rocky islands and a myriad of skerries. Islands, endless islands. Some like hyphens floating on the horizon. Some near, some far. Some nearly flat, some mountainous. Some like Mull and Rum and Skye, rippling with serrated ridges. Mesmeric islands, timeless, stunningly beautiful, that dug deep into my soul. Not like a nightmare but a dream. Misty or clear or crowned by vivid, golden sunsets. I could not forget. I had to return…… and I have many times. And the dream carries on……!

A day in the rain . . .
A view, encountered during a long walk from Sligachan to Sgurr na Stri, of the Cuillins surrounding Loch Coruisk. The foreground is the slope of Sgurr na Stri while in the distance the low clouds are just beginning to obscure portions of the Cuillins. On Loch Coruisk the swirling winds are disrupting only portions of the water surface. The low clouds this day only heightened the rugged beauty of the Black Cuillins. A long day of walking, 8-9 hours, but it was definitely worth the journey. Best viewed Large(L)

Whilst planning a trip to Scotland and the Isle of Skye I stumbled across a summit called Sgurr Na Stri and Camasunary Bothy.
Perhaps the finest view of the Cuillin ridge, Sgurr na Stri may be a small hill in comparison to its surroundings, but its location ...
Setting off from Sligachan Campsite, i set off for an 8 mile hike into Scotland wilderness to find the alien like Sgurr na Stri.
Sgùrr na Strì from Sligachan, on a nice snowy spring day. Route Description ...
