Orkney: Ward Hill and Mid Hill

Orkney mainland's highest climbed from Orphir. Our second visit to Orkney - great place, can't wait to return.

Not the best of adverts! (Next to parking spot)

Carn Dearg Mor

Corbett reached by long walk down Glen Feshie. Good tracks most of the way, ideal for the cyclists who passed us... twice.

Glen Strathfarrar

A few days in Glen Strathfarrar. Last time here bagged Ruaidhe and Gobhar. Plans to add to the Munros tally were scuppered by low cloud and rain. Nevertheless had a fine time exploring the lower hills east of Loch Monar.
