This was an after work 'quickie', so we actually drove the few minutes around to Griffin Wind Farm entrance (would have taken >1hr to cycle this) and walked up from there. Lovely late afternoon/evening - and I do find the turbines to be majestic :) but we're stretching those boundaries again, I feel :think: although we were isolated; didn't see or pass anyone else. :D

Road most of the way up (we ended up going around the hill as I was just blindly following Scoob's navigation, lol!)

Summit view, over to the hills we'd been on just a couple of days earlier (and Scheihallion in the distance)

Amazing feats of engineering :)
