On the trail in Strath Croe, Shiel Bridge, Scotland

Two weeks hiking in Scotland. Hikes 9 and 10 were from our base at Shiel Bridge. The weather turned to more typical West Highlands cloud and rain, but we still managed a couple of hikes to the Corbett Sgurr Gaorsaic and to The Falls of Glomach.

On the path up Gleann Choinneachain to Bealach a Sgairne - the gap between A' Ghlas Bheinn (up to the left) and Beinn Fhada (somewhere off to the right). I was doomed not to reach either peak on this day; the river higher up the valley was impassable.
