A boat trip into the Smoo Cave, Durness – August
We weren’t walking on hills this day, but we did look at hills along the way. The Smoo Cave is in the far north-west of Scotland, in Durness. We took a trip on the dinghy operated by a man who told us about the geology of the caves.

A rainy and windy day in Flowerdale, near Gairloch, Wester Ross – August
Another poor forecast, so we decided to try to get some practice scrambling with rope protection. As we got to the area of An Groban, the rain became quite heavy, so we tried to take what shelter we could find, against a slightly overhanging rock.

Unifinished business 2 – Beinn Eighe, Torridon, Wester Ross – August
We had started this walk on a previous trip, and turned back due to deteriorating weather. This time, we did not get rained on until we had descended to the glen and were walking back out to the road.
