Nearer Scoraig the path curves north round the rocky outcrop called Creag á Chadha. This view south shows where the path crosses the crags. In the distance can be seen Sail Mhor at the other side of the loch. | |

Loch Broom 07 1152 x 864 106K |
This is the view west out towards the mouth of the loch and the open sea. At the extreme right of the picture, the path to the community of Scoraig is just visible. There is no road here; you must walk, or travel by boat (or helicopter). | |

Looking down from Creag á Chadha into the blue waters. Trees down at the water's edge are catching the April sunshine. | |

Photographed from Rhue near Ullapool. | |
| Stac
Pollaidh 02 1152 x 864 204K |
The footpath from the north east corner of Loch Lurgainn climbs up this slope on the way to Loch an Doire Dhuibh. Two small Scots Pine trees stand out against a blue sky with fluffy little clouds. The characteristic shape of Stac Pollaidh dominates the distance. | |
| Suilven
and Cul Mór 1152 x 864 307K |
The same footpath, a little further on. The ridge of Suilven is now plainly visible about nine kilometres north, behind the lower western slopes of Cul Mór just over two kilometres away. A puddle reflects the blue sky. | |
| Suilven 09 1152 x 864 355K |
Suilven seen from the opposite side, much closer up. This is the footpath from Lochinver to Ledmore. There is a way up onto the ridge by a col east of Caisteal Liath apparently, but the path to it from this path is not obvious, being marked only by a barely discernable cairn of about two stones. Looking through binoculars, I got the impression that some rock-climbing was necessary. |
