A Kilchoan Diary: Snow on the Hills

Snow on the Hills

Last night's snow, brought in by a chill southeaster, blankets the summit of Ben Hiant. The houses to the left are in Pier Road, while the lone building to the right is HM Coastguard Station Kilchoan.

About Kilchoan

Kilchoan is a remote Scottish crofting village at the westernmost end of the Ardnamurchan peninsula, a two-hour drive to the west of Fort William. Its white houses are strung like pearls around a wide bay, looking out across the Sound of Mull to Tobermory. The year-round population of the village itself is just over a hundred, but this diary writes about all the villages of western Ardnamurchan, including Portuairk, Sanna, Achosnich, Achnaha and Kilmory.
