NN0495 : The summit of Mam an Doire Dhuinn
taken 24 days ago, 4 km NE of Murlaggan, Highland, Scotland
The summit of Mam an Doire Dhuinn
Looking south-east towards Loch Blair (that man gets everywhere!) and, in the distance, part of Loch Arkaig.
Michael Earnshaw, the photographer, knew that this day had the poorest forecast during his trip, so chose a short walk to a fairly low (564m) hill. This was clearly a success as he stayed beneath the clouds.
Mam an Doire Dhuinn is a Dodd. I won't attempt to define that - but as I compiled one of the lists (the 'Donald Deweys') which combined to form the Dodds, I could not refrain from advising you of this fact. If you are really interested, search for 'Database of British and Irish Hills'.
