A view looking SW from the Am Faochagach ridge (somewhere near the 845m spot height south of the summit) across Loch a' Gharbhrain to the Dirrie More. The eastern Fannichs are somewhere under the cloud. On this day I'd climbed Am Faochagach from Strath Vaich, having cycled to the lodge, but the more direct and usual(?) route starts from somewhere near the centre of this pic, crosses the river below (to the left of) the loch and heads up towards this point.
