FAR OUT IN FISHERFIELD







I was out backpacking in the wonderful Fisherfield forest of the NW Highlands. The NW of Scotland was supposed to be the sunniest part of the UK today but there was still a fair amount of cloud about. So I changed my plans and didn't go onto An Teallach ( it deserves the best weather!) and instead walked into Loch a' Bhraoin and ascended a couple of quite remote Graham's (mountains of 2000ft-2499ft in Scotland) Groban and Beinn Beag. I had a quick look in at the Loch a' Bhraoin bothy which has recently been renovated and now boasts sleeping platforms, wood burning stove and a sink with water tap and inside toilet! I walked out to Kilochewe just as the sun came out.
