Lynne’s view of the Purple Thistle

Kerrera – an island just south of Oban, a short ferry journey, low-lying but with intricate contour detail and stunning views to Mull, the Garvellachs (the Islands of the Sea) and numerous other islands dotted around the Firth of Lorn.

Would EckO be able to map this and recoup the costs? There is the potential to sell detailed maps to the small number of tourists who take a day to explore the island (a track goes from the ferry in a 10km loop around the southern part) but could we have an orienteering event there?
This article is posted on Lynne’s blog, so you will have to go there to read it.
