Coire Dhorrcail
Cliff edge that drops vertical into Coire Dhorrcail around 100m from the summit ridge of Ladhar Bheinn, an exhausting but worthwhile route from Aonach Sgoilte seeing the mountain in all its glory.

Gleann an Dubh-Lochain, Knoydart
View from the Mam Barrisdale path, looking back down the Gleann an Dubh-Lochain to the Loch an Dubh-lochain, where I'd camped the previous night. The path follows a steady gradient along the right-hand side of the glen. Saturday May 28, 1988. A digital copy of a 35mm Kodachrome 64 film transparency. Nikon FM, 35 - 70mm f3.3 - f4.5 Nikkor F-series lens. My diary for the day records: 'Despite weight of pack the climb up to Mam Barrisdale went well, reached top in just over an hour. Superb scenery, north slopes and valleys of Meall Buidhe very grand. Met several people on way down to Barrisdale, a dozen-plus tents at Barrisdale. Cloud increasing. Arrived at 10.45, pitched camp, early lunch, dozed a bit. Went for a walk along track to look at bay. Tide coming in over wide shallow sand, beautiful shell beach. Swam, sunbathed and swam again. 20+ tents by late afternoon, disappointing in such a wild, remote setting. Heavy cloud and showers late afternon.'

Loch an Dubh-Lochain, Knoydart
Wild camp at the head of Loch an Dubh-Lochain, Knoydart. Saturday May 28, 1988. A high-resolution digital copy of a 35mm Kodachrom 64 film transparency. Nikon FM, 35 - 70mm f3.3 - f4.5 Nikkor F-series lens. My journal entry for this part of the day records: 'Rose at 06.30 to a superb sunny morning. Breakfasted: Alpen and baked beans, a good start to the day, two mugs of tea, started packing straight away. Crawled out of my sleeping bag feeling refreshed after a full 9 hours sleep, punctuated only by occasional strong gusts of wind which really shook the tent. Still breezy in morning. Unzipped the tent and took a few photos, me and the tent. Packed and left at 08.45.'
