Kayaked across the loch from Drinishader. Landed on a low tide at SW side of the island, opposite Sgeir Ghlas. Rough, ungrazed ground - a lot of tufted grass and heather. Curry stool in good condition, all 3 legs covered with dry grass but easily revealed. Large conical bolt at centre - very similar to the concrete ring (buried block) trigs. Very little, if any, change from previous logger 6 years and 1 day ago. Paddled on to Rossay for the hydrographic plate.

At summit, easy to spot, nice clean example. One leg was covered in grass and easily uncovered; another is completely buried. A group of us on a 2-day island bagging charter with seaharris.

Curry Stool according to OS records. Stood at the summit but had no idea there was a trig here, and if same design as Cellar Head, could be easy to miss. Was on the MV Cuma for a week and Ken (Chalky) and I were dropped off for a quick visit, as its a "Haswell-Smith" island.
