Beautiful open view today over Loch Shurrery to the Brothers Grimm (what I call the hills - Ben Griam Mor and Ben Griam Beg on the horizon). Felt like you could see forever...

Beinn Freiceadain chambered cairn

This chambered cairn (it's the grassed over cairn that takes up half the width of the photo, not the modern stone cairn on top of it ) has one of the best views from any cairn I've been to. Just wonderful.

It's miles to Scaraben, Smean, Maiden Pap and Morven from here, but a track like this looks so inviting. One for another day hopefully :-)
