Meall Buidhe & Sron a'Choire Chnapanich
Glen Lyon
17th May 2008

A rounded couple of hills on a drab day, coupled with a bad back / hip made this one of the most unpleasant hill days for many years.

Looking west over the summit cairn of Meall Buidhe. The big hill in the center is Beinn a' Chreachain with Beinn Achaladair, just behind, the more distant hills are likely to be that of Beinn Dorain & Dothaidh.

Heading south towards Loch Lyon. The hill opposite, suffering from cloud, is Beinn Heasgarnich

Looking east along Loch Lyon, why do so many dams have these two towers? an aid to 617 Squadron?
The first bit of blue sky today can now be seen and the sun finally wins the day.
The hill on the center right with the cloud just breaking off the summit is Beinn Ghaordaidh.
