Dan Bailey, 'Great Mountain Days in Scotland', no. 44: 'scattered with rock knobbles and sandy shored lochans and defended by a winning combination of man-eating bog, ankle-twisting tussock and impenetrable conifers.'
The skyline walk took in the parallel ranges of the Rhinns of Kells and the Awful Hand surveying a sienna landscape under cumulus skies. We wild-camped above Loch Enoch before schlepping across the break between the Round Loch of the Dungeon and the Long Loch of the Dungeon. Had a nosey in the Backhill of Bush bothy, saw goats on Goat Craig then penetrated the conifers doon to Loch Head.
