 So after a bit of a breezy nite we woke to a cooler morning and a distant weak sunset.The wind would be with us for the next two days now,but the cun came out again !! and the views were still distant...... Sunrise Most of the next days peaks in this pic Our camp spot was ontop of this lovely peak,Sgurr na Ciche just peaking behind Sgurr Mor on the left  Todays wind was a bit fresh near constant 20 with some gusts up around 40 mph Our last camp spot is on the shoulder of the last peak ,Giarich Sgurr Mor,what a great shaped mountain The red roof of Kinbreak bothy,far below Giarich summit behind camp,our windiest constant 25,s and gusts too 45 +  both shelters never moved once pegged down...a very welcome brew and tea Birdseye view of Duomid Now we normally get our shelter mods from Robin,but this ones MINE !! The velcro works great ...
