Mountains of Kintail, Highlands, Nov 2023
I was in the shadow of the Five Sisters of Kintail. These mountains are a serious climb and you need to know what you are doing. Even from here it looks rugged. It has been drier in the West Highlands this autumn season there was no water running down the hillside.
