Stob an Lochan, located between Loch Ard and Loch Katrine, gave me the most dramatic and awe-inspiring weather inversion I have ever experienced. I wouldn't have witnessed this stunning phenomenon without the Red Deer prompting me to change my plans for the day!
Today was anything but uneventful. Getting trapped by a thunder and lightning storm on the open expanse of Aderlady Bay is not something we would like to repeat... but the views, they were outstanding!
Despite being the shortest day, today was your favourite! Ending at a spectacular beach wild camp on Broadsands overlooking the island of Fidra

Another big section of coast walked, and boy was it an adventure! These are your journals...!
