20 As mentioned on page
06, near Culsharg we cross the same forest track that we crossed earlier
between Eschoncan and Bennan. In the picture above you can see this forest
track. You can also see Culsharg bothy in the middle of the picture as we
emerge from a bit of the tourist route which still goes through pleasant
woodland. In the second picture we are down past Culsharg and looking back to both it and the lower slopes of Benyellary. It is by no means a good bothy - as you can see there are no wndows or doors in it - but some people do seem to use it and it would offer a bit of shelter on a day of really nasty weather. The third picture offers a view that has only recently become available - since the trees were cut down. You can see that the track running into the picture towards Culsharg has had some work done on it fairly recently too. Now we are far enough away to see both Benyellary and the Merrick beyond the bothy. |
