Snow on the Paps




Arriving at Port Askaig full of another Cal Mac breakfast, the Paps were wonderously white, but there was more weather to come!




Operation "tree plant" was our battle plan, but the biggest enemy was wind and rain (and possibly trench foot!). This was no time and place for light weight infantry,we needed reinforcements. Bring on Martin, the digger man.

He made light work of a fifth raised bed, moving wet earth and digging lots and lots of holes.

Glenegadale "forest" gets a few trees nearer, Rowan trees line the drive and now onto operation pebble beach.
