The cairn to north... if, indeed, it is a cairn.

The cairn from the ‘pile of stones’ to approx north.

Looking north toward ‘another cairn’. It seems Canmore suggests this is clearance. Maybe, although it didn’t seem so to me.

Agree with thelonious... surely this was a chambered cairn?

As with the Capenoch Loch long cairn earlier in the week, there was the perfect vibe here at this excellent site.

Creag Innis an Daimh Dhuibh

17/04/2016 – We parked at Loch Ceo Glais and walked south along quiet roads to the start of the forest track just after Eudinuagain. Makes for a fine walk and parking isn’t that great nearer the hill. Follow the forest track round the hill W then S then take the ride SW and another ride E. Easy going and the cairn is not that hard to find in open woodland. I really liked this one. Nice size with plenty of stones. Canmore makes no mention of an exposed chamber but the middle looks like a collapsed chamber to me. Some pretty big stones in the cairn as well. Great vibe to this site and the top of the hill is worth a visit for the view as well.
