Easy over the deer gate and then left and it’s near the fence a few metres in from the deer fence.

Parked at deer gate ~85m SW. Hopped the gate and across rough, boggy ground. Height tag missing otherwise good.

Looking from the other side of the tall fence was close enough for me.

Viewed through high fence, looks to be in good condition.

Pulled car in to an entrance by a gate through the deer fence only a very short distance west of the FBM. Over the deer fence and easily found this gem which other than a crack is in good order.

Driven to this one by relatives who live in Thurso and had already checked out exactly where to pause on the side of the road!

No parking, but a quiet road, so put hazards on and jumped out. Quickly spotted through the deer fence.

No real parking spot so just stuck the hazzards on and had a look. It's Behind the deer fence.

South side of road on the other side of a deer fence and west of a double fence at right angles to the road.

Third FBM/YSM of the day. Another jog back down the road from where we managed to park. The earlier mist and fog was now stair rod rain.

If Dounreay should ever blow would this FBM survive?

Easy roadside bag with parking beside FBM. No height plate (as usual). Awkward location as already mentioned below

Visited on the way to our next campsite at Dunnet Bay. We'd been calling these mini trigs but have now seen their proper names. Couldn't reach this one due to the deer fencing but it's still visible from the road. Re-logging as originally found as Maxiboo22 but consolidating all finds under the one account.

You wait for a fundamental benchmark then two come along at once... This one was easy to see but harder to get to.

Not an exciting spot, but just getting this far is a feat. The pub at Melvich, a good deal nearer than Thurso, serves filling food - I recommend their beef burgers.

Right on the side of the road but unreachable in the rain due to the fact that a 15ft high deer fence is in the way. Normally I would climb it but due to the conditions and the fact I am on the way to Thurso for food will leave it this time!
