We started cycling from Attadale, going for Lurg Mhor, but turned back at the first building! We weren't going anywhere fast in that headwind :shock:
Instead, we drove up the road and went for this Graham. We'd already done Beinn na Feusaige a few years back, so this seemed a good shorter-day alternative plan :D

Setting off in the breeze - we pretty much took a straight line up the shoulder in front

View behind us; we'd come through some fairly boggy ground to this point

Decent shelter at the summit, but with the wind blowing from this side, we tucked around the back for a bite to eat
