I admit, you have to know they are there. But they are. If you look closely you can just make out some dots towards the left hand side of the scree field just below the summit plateau. These are the walkers who went to the summit of Beinn a’Chaolais during the Islay walking week 2014. I took the picture from around 6 miles away, from the shore of the Sound of Islay south of Port Askaig where I was with another walk.

Picture of a group of walkers approaching a mountain they plan to climbDuring the Islay walking week 2013 we climbed Beinn a’Chaolais, at the 733m the third highest of the Paps of Jura, in some wonderful sunshine. This is the approach from the south west, having walked in from the ferry.
