This road – a minor one – heads east from Uig across to the east coast.
This is a lovely route through the Trottenish area of Skye – the peninsula which Uig is on.
Zoom in or out this was a pleasing stretch with its tumbling stream.
The grey sky certainly added to the bleakness, with just us and a road.
In places, the ground had been washed away from under the grassy turf. These turfs, completely saturated, dripped streams of water downwards. – But there were also genuine waterfalls.
There was a chance, too, to enjoy the flower of Scotland.
Here, the stream which tumbled down the fall, moved a bit more serenely down the gentle valley.
Ahead of us, lost in the mist, were the strange basalt outcrops known as the Quiraing.
