Ben More (north side update)
There was a flash flood on the fifth of July 2012 that destroyed a couple of bridges, so caused problems for Munro baggers and others. The rain was very localised, I went for a dry walk to the lighthouse near Tobermory that evening.
I wrote about this before http://www.colinmoody.com/Site/Blog/Entries/2012/8/7_Bracken_Spraying.html
A couple of years ago a hydro scheme (700KW) was built to the west, the turbine house is hidden in the trees.
Another was constructed to the east (500KW), the turbine house was built to look like a house (complete with pretend chimney), I think a rock coloured building would have been better.
There was a fire behind it last week, the fire brigade put it out.
Dhiseig, where most start up Ben More has been demolished and a new house is being built.
