A cloudy April walk up the track from Kilchoman to Kilchiaran, looking back over Machir Bay with Kilchoman beach. A few Sheep grazing with a view, although I don’t know if they understand the concept of a nice view?

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.
