Ah, Loch Callater, I remember it well; I went pike fishing in a little rubber dingy and was towed around the loch for ages before I could land the monster! How about this lovely loch where I went trout fishing and did not get towed anywhere.

Those hills look so familiar but didn't register until I Googled street view on the A82.

I'll take a chance on Lochan Gaineamhach.

Lochan Mathair Eite? If it is, others should really get the credit as somehow I hadn't even recognised BM...

BP's last one is up the Bealach to the NE.

Huzzah! Yes indeed, a fine collection of wee lochans with a fantastic view of the Buchaille and the hills of Glen Coe in the distance. A wonderful day of sunshine, a fresh breeze carrying the perfume of the moor in high summer, the sigh of the wind in the heather and the ungodly rumble of trucks on the A82... Over to you Kaye Cantlay :D
