Spatial NI has online OSNI mapping. Click "Basemap Gallery" (4 squares icon at the top).
Now would be a good time for a cup of tea.

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.

Above the Falls
Although easily accessible, the best vantage point for the waterfall in my previous post was a little precarious and certainly only room for one. Having got my shot, Iain and I swapped over and I headed a short distance upstream to capture this.

This stretch of road is one of several to be known as the Destitution Road. It was built during the Highland Potato Famine of 1846-1847, to provide employment for crofters in exchange for oatmeal rations. Beyond Dundonnell, the A832 enters the Dundonnell Gorge and begins climbing alongside several waterfalls on the Dundonnell River. The road leaves the top of the gorge at Fain Bridge and continues across the open moors to the summit at an altitude of 332 metres (1089 ft), surrounded by the towering peaks of An Teallach, Sgurr nan Clach Geala and Beinn Dearg. On its final stretch, the road descends alongside the Abhainn Cuileig river, then turns alongside the Corrieshalloch Gorge. There is a car park here, with footpath access to the top of the gorge and the Falls of Measach. Shortly after passing the gorge, the A832 terminates at Braemore Junction on the A835 wiki P1080688b
