20 From the bottom of Riccart Law Rig we can look due south down into the valley of the Potrenick Burn which was where we were near the end of the Lowther and Green Lowther by the Southern Upland Way walk as we made our way back to the car at Overfingland. If you click on that link you will get a view back up onto Riccart Cleuch Rig from down there. You might also like to refer to the map for that particular walk to see how all this fits together. Overfingland lies at the point of the long dark right-to-left running wedge created by Comb Head (on the right) and Laght Hill in the above picture and is roughly quarter way in from the left side of the picture. The Durisdeer hills (in sunlight) lie beyond that, strung across the picture.
You can also see most of the hills we have been on in the current walk in the Comb Law, Rodger Law, Ballencleuch Law and Scaw'd Law walk. Clicking on that link will give you a large view of the whole range of Lowther Hills as viewed from Scaw'd Law with a mouseover showing the names of the hills. The map in that walk will also show the names of the Durisdeer hills that you can see beyond Laght Hill in the picture above.
Below is a view back up Riccart Law Rig from the bottom. The lower section of the rig is over peat hags and is harder going than it looks here, as I have already said.
