Ben Loyal,

A view across The Kyle of Tongue to Ben Loyal, Ben Loyal is composed chiefly of granite, specifically syenite,[2] and has a distinctive shape due to the four rocky peaks, the highest of which is called An Caisteal. To the north of An Caisteal is the 712 m Sgòr Chaonasaid, to the south is Bheinn Bheag (744 m), and to the west is the ridge of Sgòr a Chèirich, 644 m at its highest point. The fourth peak in the picture is the 568 m Sgòr Fionnaich. (Wikipdia) This is the second of my today's posts to the group "North West 500 Group"

The tidal Kyle of Tongue showing the causeway which carries the main A838 coastal road which combined with the A836 forms a major part of the North Coast 500 route around the top of the country, Ben Loyal range in the background, and this image was taken from the Melness side of the Kyle. This area has a good reputation for catching the Northern Lights. Please view large, and I wish everyone HFF and a great weekend.

Just a glimpse of a distant Loch Meadie in this shot from the Bettyhill viewpoint on the A836 which forms a part of the North West 500 Coastal Route around the desolate flat peat bog and moorland of the Flow Country, one of the last true wilderness areas in Europe. While the population of the Flow Country is sparse, it is a popular home for numerous rare plants, insects and birds. Large for detail please. HBM and a great week to you all,
