By coincidence we climbed Sgurr nan Eugallt a couple of days later in similar superb weather - but vuirich has it - east ridge of Sgurr a’Mhaoraich

Over to you!

Clue: The water on the left of the picture is fresh, that to the right is seawater.

It is. The tide was just going out at this point, so the crossing was quite entertaining. On our return from climbing Eabhal - a fantastic hill with tremendous views - the water levels were lower resulting in an easier crossing.

Over to you.

Thanks Viurich.
I've not actually climbed Eabhal - but checked it out as a possible day trip when we visited Lewis and Harris in Jan....
It remains on the list.

So - where am I in this next pic? (probably too easy for you lot!)

The top of Beinn Mhic-Mhonaidh, looking north towards the Etive hills?

Beinn Mich Mhonaidh it is.
Thought that wouldn't take long.

Glacially-polished Torridonian. I'm guessing that the photo is of the SE face of Beinn Damh, so somewhere on Beinn na h-Eaglaise?
