    Gairich from Spidean Mialach.

~ There was an inversion to the east, while the west was clear, but a breeze wafted this tongue of cloud through from Glen Garry
    In Glen Ure.

~ A pleasant place to stop between Sgulaird and Fhionnlaidh, at the head of the glen. I woke around midnight and looking out to see what was what - I  found the glorious Comet Hale-Bopp  blazing away in the western sky. Nothing for it but to go out into the freezing night air and set the tripod up - there's dedication for you.

How bereft the night sky seemed after Hale-Bopp had gone. Blessings on the comet - come again. (It will, around 4377.)
