Mount Doom
From Edinbane, we decided to visit the Quiraing, a "hill" with eroded rock teeth and howling wind we'll not soon forget =)
We made the "mistake" of going with a slight mist, and after circling around failed to find any cairn. Some other hikers informed us of a steep, muddy trail they had descended that would take you to the center of the cairn.
It took some convincing, but as the rest had been disappointing we decided to brave the slope. As unnerving as the climb was, we couldn't help feel achievement at reaching the LOTR-esque cairn with swirling mists and winds that lent an eerie mood to the tabletop.
Quiraing on the Isle of Skye, The Highlands.
