This young chap is just outside my kitchen window. He's been there for quite a while. I think I'll call him Stuart.

These mist covered mountains Are a home now for me -Dire Straits 1985

A view of Suilven during the 7 mile walk-in to its base. It was not the best weather for climbing it today, as it didn't stop raining for the entire 8 hours it took and the summit was clagged in. Did the River Kirkaig/ Fionn Loch route, which was very boggy and tough going.

River Kirkaig this afternoon.

No summit views from Suilven today 😕

Fionn Loch and Cùl Mòr in the distance.

A welcome refuge from the rain

Inchnadamph bone caves. Polar bear and lynx bones have been found here.

This was a big waterfall, probably 50-foot high, but the tallest waterfall in the UK is only a few km from here.

Rainbow 🌈 on Quinag this morning

A break in the clouds over Loch Assynt this morning

Back-lit mountains and rain showers 😍 Front to back: Quinag, Canisp, Suilven & Cùl Mòr

Sunlight on the slopes of Conival this morning. Taken from approx 6 miles away.

Stag on the shore of Loch Stack this morning

Love these funky clumps of grass. Up on Arkle today.

Today's walk up Arkle took me way longer than planned because the views were so good. Foinaven looked stunning 😍
