View from the North
by fingalscave  15 Feb 2012 I recently posted a photo outlining a route up Knocklaur. From the angle it was taken, it doesn't portray the immense bulk and dramatic profile of this northern spur. This one gives a better impression. Taken from around L928 648 (Point A) while descending from Devilsmother North Top.
Point A: L928 648 (turn area map On)

Eskatariff horseshoe walk
