Knoydart Trip - Day 6 - Scotland

Blogging at 21:30 on Saturday 21st September from intended overnighting spot:
N 57.02715°, W 04.48444° / http://maps.google.com/maps?q=loc:57.02715%2C-04.48444

Things to remember:
  • Last night's sneaky camp was a real gem. Utterly peaceful with virtually no concern about being joined or discovered.
  • Skinadin parkrun was more or less exactly the same experience as Løvstien, except the aggregate underfoot was even coarser. It was a proper grueller and genuinely worthy of my X-Talons choice.
  • Though it's spectacular - and I made a fist if it - I was glad to clear Skye and its claustrophobia of intensified tourism.
  • Another beautifully sunny and settled day, today; and it's been, for the most part, a spectacular drive east through awesome landscapes.
  • In the Cairngorms National Park now and, by following my nose, chanced upon a road of sorts called General Wade's Military Road. This looks like it's worth a further look...
  • From the spot just off the military road where I'm intending to sleep (pic), I've seen dozens of red deer, crossbills, a merlin and a male hen harrier.
