June 1st and 2nd 2010 - last of Knoydart
After approximately ten years of meaning to complete walking the hills of Knoydart I have at last done so!
For the first time I approached from Loch Arkaig and Strathan. I arrived at 4 pm and walked in past Upper Glendessary and about 7 pm set up camp. Slept well and got up at 4am, breakfast and on to do Sgurr na Ciche and Garbh Chioch Mhor. These were big hills but the weather was lovely and cool. No sleep on the tops this time! Only saw a very few other walkers. Arrived back at the car thirteen hours later to discover that my sore feet from last week had turned into whapper size blisters – oh the joys.
The pictures show the wall over these tops – pre 1914 – there must have been money around as the wall had three strand of wire on top held by stanchions leaded into boulders – made to last. Other pictures show the campsite from last week plus views into deeper Knoydart.
