Rev. John McIntosh

I think this carved statue would give you the willies if looming out of the Scottish mist. Fortunately this was a sunny evening.

The statue is on the track from Killiechonate to the Lairig Leacach. The plaque with the statue says:

A stone statue of the Wee Minister dating from the 1900's once stood on a site nearby and was said to bring good luck to climbers and walkers. The statue believed to be of the Rev. John McIntosh, was destroyed in the 1970's. However in May 2010 the local tourism group decided to resurrect him and replace him with this replica in cedar wood by Peter Bowsher, champion wood carver.
Good fortune to all who pass by this way.
