	Loch Torridon 1152 x 864 173K	A view of this sea loch on the north side of the Applecross Peninsula. Like many parts of the west coast, the fractal coastline is convoluted into sub-peninsulas and islands.
	Glen Grudie 00 1152 x 864 228K	Glen Grudie runs south from Loch Maree and the deer-stalkers' path gives good access deep into the mountains with excellent views of the north side of Beinn Eighe. The two mist-capped peaks visible here are Ruadh-stac Mor and Sail Mhor.
	Glen Grudie 02 1152 x 864 173K	Looking east , down over the burn (stream) called Allt a Choire Bhriste. We had intended to climb Beinn a Chearcail but low cloud and gales made us turn back at the top of Choire Briste.
	Glen Grudie 12 1152 x 864 286K	Back on the stalkers' path and heading straight for Ruadh-stac Mor and Sail Mhor, with Ruadh-stac Beag just visible on the left.
	Glen Grudie 13 1152 x 864 323K	Further south along the path which climbs slightly up the eastern edge of Beann a Chearcail before descending again below the cliffs called Creag na Feola.
	Glen Grudie 20 1152 x 864 141K	Onward into the wilderness. Ruadh-stac Mhor is cloud-free but Beinn Eighe's other peaks are covered. In the distance on the left can be seen the River Grudie's two tributaries, Allt Coire Ruadh-staca and Allt Coire Mhic Fhearchair, sparkling in the sunshine.
	Glen Grudie 24 1152 x 864 261K	The path stretches on ahead, passing below Crag na Feola and getting ever nearer to Coire Mhic Fhearchair which lies between the twin peaks.
	Glen Grudie 28 1152 x 864 381K	A tiny sundew plant which has caught several insects - probably midges.
	Glen Grudie 29 1152 x 864 237K	The path heading east, back to the A832 and Loch Maree. Slioch is the mountain on the right, 980m above sea level.
