Norman,
Good photo's!
Beinn an t-Sidhein is a good wee walk but it was far better before the Forestry Commission cut down all the trees. I see from your photos that the machine track cut into the side of the hill hasn't improved much. A steep path made more difficult trying to keep your feet and avoid all the cut branches.
An excellent view from the top though!
I've stayed at Immervoulin (the campsite at the top of Loch Lubnaig) a few times but from your photo's it looks a wee bit damp the now! Dinnae fancy that much!
Thanks Norman. A nice part of the world!
Thanks,
/Colin.
