Peaks: Meall na h-Uinneig (745m)
Area: Monadhliath, Central Highlands
A short jog into the hills above our cottage in Laggan before our journey home. We had all enjoyed numerous walks directly from the cottage door as it was a working Highland farm, and I'd tried to locate an obscure crag (Creagan Solleir) on Thursday. I left at 6am in muted morning light: light blue sky above, and numerous curlews bubbling. Snipe, ring ouzel and peregrine (nesting on Solleir) completed the scene. A short track led to the spur which leads NE to the 'summit' of Meall na h-Uinneig, really just a highpoint on a long broad ridge leading down from the higher Monadhliath peaks.
