| On the approach to Tarfessock |
“The Awful Hand Range”, conjours up such a vivid picture of
a wild, untamed, inhospitable landscape, it had huge expectations to live up
to, yesterday. But, we weren’t disappointed, for the massif of 5 finger- like
spurs running off a linear ridge in the Galloway hills is well named. The terrain, peppered with lochans, is rough and unforgiving but all the more
beautiful for that. Buffeted by fearsome westerly winds, we made a circuit of
the two middle fingers: Tarfessock and Kirriereoch via Carmaddie Brae where the
far ranging views of Shalloch on Minnoch,
Merrick, and Corserine were simply stunning
