Cruachan photo

Looking South-East from the summit of Cruachan

This knobbly wee hill is a mass of hillocks and peathags, which makes route-finding difficult on a misty day like this one. Luckily a rickety deer-fence leads all the way up the north ridge to the summit and then bears off to the south-east.
