Paddling east, the next Ardnamurchan headland we came to was low lying
Ockle Point.
Once we rounded Ockle we could see the final headland of the day in the distance.
Rubha Aird Druimnich was sunlit and standing out against the dark slopes of
Rois-Bheinn (878m) beyond.
The sun was steadily sinking to the SSW and...
...Muck which was directly in front of Rum
when we started was now lying away to the left.
From
Rubha Aird Druimnich, Eigg now lay directly in front of Rum.
The convoluted folds of rock on Rubha Aird Druimnich were thrown into sharp relief by...
...the low winter sun.
We now turned SE for the final 5km. Ian and I hoped to make the shifting sands behind the beach at
Cul na Croise before sunset. We tried... but we didn't make it.
