Funny-looking clouds peeking above the lower flanks of Baosbheinn on way to Beinn an Eoin. They look like they are having a conversation
This was our second attempt at going up Beinn an Eòin. On the previous occasion we had turned back due to deteriorating weather conditions. This time the clearer weather held, and we had good views all around.
Sandstone pavement on way up Beinn an Eòin. The river flowing out of Loch na h-Oidhche, and the lower parts of Baosbheinn, are visible further away
I think this plant is called a Sea Pink
A bit of weather on the right, as we got to Coire Loch na Geala, with a wide rocky shelf
You don’t get rainbows without a bit of moisture in the air
Weird rock. Beinn a’ Chearcaill behind. Looking east-south-east
View of Stuc Loch na Cabhaig on the left, Beinn Alligin to the right of the gap, and Sgorr a Chadail peeking through the gap of Bealach a Chomhla. Looking south
I was glad we weren’t over there just then – looking towards Beinn Eighe to the south-east
On Beinn an Eòin, looking north-north-west
Loch na h-Oidhche which lies between Beinn an Eoin and Baosbheinn. The Flowerdale Forest, where there are no longer any trees
Looking from the southern end of Beinn an Eòin across the lochan-littered Mulcach to Beinn Eighe, where we walked the previous day. You can see the Coire Mhic Fhearchair corrie containing Loch Coire Mhic Fhearchair, surrounded by Sail Mhòr on the right and Ruadh-stac Mòr on the left. Sgurr nan Fhir Duibhe (also part of Beinn Eighe) can be seen behind Ruadh-stac Mòr. The lower brown hill on the far left is Beinn a’ Chearcaill, and the tops of Liathach can be seen in the distance on the right. Looking south-east
A closer-up view of Coire Mhic Fhearchair. We came down the bealach visible in the middle, coming down past the loch.
Weird rock and weather – Slioch is the range over on the right. Looking east-north-east
