28th June.
The rain had stopped and there was some wind under a grey overcast sky. Heavy rain for an hour or so in the middle of the day then progressively more sunshine.
A climb up towards Eagle Rock before contouring round to the loch on a reasonable path.
The path continues into the wilds behind Ben More Assynt deteriorating as it goes until meeting a track that comes up Glen Cassley.
The scenery around here is just stunning, again pictures can't do it justice.
The rain only makes it more atmospheric, as long as the cloud doesn't come down as well!
Across a mile or so of pathless rock, heather and bog to find the path down Glen Coul and more beauty.
Loch Glen Coul is a sea loch, something you forget being a long way from the coast, until you see the seaweed.

Another steep climb over the spur and down to Glendhu bothy in the sunshine.
The bothy was empty and no-one came later, peace.
17.5 miles walked 1000 meters ascent.

looks a bit more interesting than flat suffolk!
