22 Here is the view down into Riccart Cleuch as I began to come off the ridge. In the shots below I have zoomed into two areas of the above shot.
The first of these shows the track I had spied and from the map I could see that it would take me back exactly to Overfingland which is in those trees down in Potrail Valley bottom just left of centre in the picture. So the hill with the track running across the face of it is Laght Hill - where we started our day's climb from Overfingland
In the second picture below we get a good view of the saddle between Laght Hill and Comb Head. Caplaw Rig can be seen through the saddle running back to Well Hill. Mouseover to see the names of the hills.
