The Cuillin from Elgol

Looking over to the Cuillin range on Skye from Elgol on the mainland. Took this one in 2006 - needed a fair bit of tidying up as it was a fairly dull day.



For those that fancy a really challenging approach to 'the' ridge you can get a little boat accross and breach the 'bad step' on foot to the smaller land-locked Loch Coruisk (a small loch completely 'hemmed' in by the Cuillin.

Loch Coruisk (right)

Not sure about that. It might take about 20 goes to get 1 that can then be made to look OK. Law of averages - like that saying 'even a blind squirrel sometimes finds a nut'

Re: The Cuillin from Elgol

They're both really good Phil, but the second one has to be my favourite
