taken 14 years ago, 3 km from Roskhill, Isle of Skye, Scotland

Evidence of an old track?
Evidence of an old track?
What looks to be a ford through one of the many tributaries of the Caroy River may just be a shepherd's quad bike route, but in this part of Gleann Eoghainn are remains of some 15 ruined shielings, so there would have been some tracks created here through the boggy moor. In the background are some of the turbines in the Ben Aketil wind farm.
