We’ve all seen cairns, waded across to cairns, climbed up to cairns, walked miles to cairns – sometimes with lots to see, sometimes with very little to see.
This cairn is a bit of everything except you can hardly see it as most of is in a small loch beneath the water. However what you can see is the top of a slab and when the wind calms down you can just about make out the side slabs of a chamber or cist.
In Aberdeenshire we have had a lot of rain this year, it appears to be same over in the west – will have to take a snorkel next time.
If heading across the B8025 – Crinan Moss road, there is a crossroads, head west. The road has a little kink, stop there, plenty room to not obstruct any traffic. A cairn covered in water sits to the north.
Worth a visit, probably in drought conditions.
