Suilven, a mountain of character

As we leave The Falls of Kirkaig, I look back further up the valley and see this spectacular scene through my long lens. In reality it was only a mile or so further up the path to get to see its foot and a nice lake too but we didn’t! as it was only supposed to be a short morning walk and we had brought nothing to eat nor drink for an extended walk. Pity! ...Townies!! Suilven: is a mountain in Scotland. Lying in a remote area in the west of Sutherland, it rises from a wilderness landscape of moorland, bogs, and lochans known as the Inverpolly National Nature Reserve. Suilven forms a steep-sided ridge some 2 kilometres in length. Wikipedia It is in the list of Marilyns and ranked No.561 by height at 731m in the Database of British and Irish Hills.
