Hills around Scourie 350 million years ago!
Oh, we must be talking about Scourie again, a remote area in
the far Northwest Highlands of Scotland.
Yes, a perfect place to spend New Years eve and day.
An on the 1st of January we walked up the huge hill that
overlooks the village and looked down.
Oh, and then looking over to the East, three big hills.
These were, built 350 million years ago and each one is +/- 700 metres high and
one wonders were they built to that height at precisely that time or did they
grow over time.
No matter, an incredible sight on a sunny new years day!

Again we were with friends Fiona, Charlotte and Richard
Campbell who again in a few months time will be re-opening the Scourie Hotel to
an adoring clientele, especially those fishermen in search of wild brown trout!
