Looking north east over the cairn, considerably brighter weather, as requested, on it’s way :-)

B, the dog and R, the rucksack mark the edge of the cairn. Looking south west to Torr Alvie didn’t look promising. Luckily my control of the weather had returned.

Creag A’ Mhuilein

Leave the B970 (south from Coylum Bridge) and take the road to Loch an Eilein, pulling in at Milton Cottage. Head south west by jumping the Milton Burn, then head uphill.

The cairn sits on top pf Geag A’ Mhuilein, a short but fairly steep climb.

Sitting at about 12m and 0.5m high, the cairn still has several kerbs in place. As usual somebody has had a go at some houking.

Tremendous views, decent site if somewhat overgrown. With that done it was time to fall back down the hill.
