Iolair-Bhara
Beinn an Lochain, Loch Restil, Beinn Luibheann & Beinn Ime
. . . taken from just below Ben Donich's summit ridge.
From afar, Donich appears fairly benign. A uniformly grassy pyramid that sits rather shyly amongst more illustrious neighbours. No hint is given to those below of the rocky chaos that lurks in various corners. House-sized boulders & yawning rock crevasses are a fairly startling revelation having plodded up some featureless slopes!
For once I was a tad disappointed a fellow early-riser didn't appear in the scene as I took my photographs. Lending some scale to the foreground jumble of rock would have been handy. (They're massive, by the way!)
