That's the one.

Normally, you can see stuff like amazing mountains. We were wind-bound at Tarbet on a canoeing trip, so just walked along to Kylesmorar and back in heavy rain.

Over to you...

I would never have got that, but I'm reading a book at the moment about the Rough Bounds, which has led me to consider a circuit of Loch Morar when I get back to Britain.

Speaking of which - I fly home from China in 11 hours, but I've got a 15 hour stopover in Moscow. In the event that I have no wifi there, it could be a while before I get the chance to reply to this, so hopefully this is obscure, but not so obscure as to be unguessable - though knowing you ridiculously knowledgeable lot, someone will get it within ten minutes...

I'm not near any major summits so a rough description will suffice.

That'll do. It was a little north of the summit marked as Fiurnean, a few kilometres north of Portree.

Thanks SS. It looked familiar in the distance but I was finding it hard getting your actual location.

Okdoaky. More corbetts - where am I ?
