Thanks and no problem, I was away as well (attacking remote Corbetts and Grahams). Now I have 12 new reports to write :shock:

The loch below is famous for reasons other than hillwalking...

Not these.

Yes that's it Mal. A few weeks ago on the fantastic path between Kinloch Hourn and Barrisdale just before you turn the corner into the bay and get the classic view of Larven.

Over to you. :D
