Boulders on the Kilchoman to Kilchiaran track, Isle of Islay

Spotted in April 2023, I don’t know if they’re still there now. Two boulders fallen on the track between Kilchoman and Kilchiaran, just below Bealach na Caillich. As you can see they didn’t block the track, someone just drove around them. Still, I wouldn’t want to have been in their path when they came down.

An April view at the southern end of Kilchoman beach, looking out over Machir Bay towards Kilchiaran. Waves are breaking as they approach the beach, sending spray high in the air when hitting the rocks and cliffs.
