The Way to Nowhere

In Scotland for a few weeks now, starting with a few days at Mill Cottage in Glen Feshie for C+S's Munro completion party.  A rather dull day today with cloud on the hills, but Ch wanted to do a  Corbett at Corrieyairick Pass, so off we went with S+R to do Corrieyairick Hill and Gairbeinn in the Monadh Liath. A Corbett is a Scottish hill between 2,500 and 3,000 feet, not quite high enough for the exalted status of a Munro, but still subtantial hills. Corrieyairick Hill and Gairbeinn are exactly the same height on the OS map, so C wanted to do both, just to be sure he got his Corbett, though it states quite clearly in the Corbett bible that Gairbeinn is the higher of the two, by quite a few inches. The light was rather flat for photography, but we passed this intriguing gate to nowhere on the way down. It felt as though you might enter another world if you went through it, where the time flows at a different rate and the animals would talk.
