Assynt

Stac Polliadh - brilliant little mountain - excellent scrambling on top - final summit is listed as Grade 2
The rest of Assynt from Stac Polliadh - 50/50 water and land - Suilven with Canisp in the background
Approach to Suilven - summit conditions were appalling - high wind and horizontal rain with zero visibility - superb mountain though

The Brack


Much underestimated mountain - the photo in the SMC Corbetts doesn't do it justice - its the Eiger of the Arrocher Alps

The Cobbler

Excellent weather - access via gully right of central summit

Sgurr na Sgine - Peak of the Knife, Glen Shiel

Knife edge ridge from the road
Leads to a fantastic curved summit ridge
and great views of The Saddle and Forcan Ridge on the way up - word of advice - don't tackle it head on - combination of steep and loose surface is not good - try the stalkers path instead
