I contined onwards but unfortunately, it wasn't long before I was in the gloom and could see no further than 30 feet in front of me. Which wasn't a problem as the massive cairn, which encloses the trig point is impossible to miss. I was at the summit within 40 minutes and after a brief refreshment, was back at the car before 70 minutes were up, after a nice run back down. Good to break sweat and edge closer to the magic 50.
The Grahams of Scotland - 2000-2499 foot in height but don't let their smaller stature fool you. There are some fantastic wee hills in Scotland from The Buck i' the Cabrach to the outstanding Suilven. Follow me on my travels into the hills!

Geallaig
En route to aunt and uncle's 30th wedding anniversary in bash, I was desperate to take in a short hill to edge closer to my target of 50 Grahams before baba is born. The forecast wasn't great for late afternoon and the further north I drove, the more bleak it appeared. I chose Geallaig and parked opposite the wee cottage on the B976 (I think). From here, I really motored up the landrover track to the wee post and looked North - it wasn't the best of views but it was still great to get out nonetheless.
