A fine adventure in the north west highlands late in the summer. The forecast was looking good but as I walked in past the waterfalls things didn't look too promising! How wrong I was! As I started ascending up the steep last slopes of Sail Mor I started to rise above the clouds to a lovely day with blue skies above and clouds below - the sunset and sunrise were ones I wont forget too soon... Video shows it better than I could describe in words...
