The snowgoose gully takes its summer form. Named for the shape, not because they ever land there!
On maps it's shown as leac an t-sneachda, the snow slab.

The rowan lives on another year, and in fact continues to grow I think.
I assume this was planted by a crow at some point.
The remains of Tigh nan Saighdearan, or the "Soldiers' House", the tiny Jacobite-era barracks in a seriously remote but strategically important location west of Loch Arkaig, controlling a significant route across the western Highlands.

The Small Isles and Lochaber

The Corran Ferry, which carries travellers across Loch Linnhe south of Fort William and serves as a portal to so many remote and wonderful places. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/corran/corranferry/index.html

The less than obvious remains of the Old Fort, or Fort William, after which the town visible in the background is named. The fort was built in 1690 on the site of a wooden Cromwellian citadel. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/fortwilliam/oldfort/index.html
In terms of drama, the stunning region of Lochaber in the western Scottish Highlands, is probably up there as having some of the finest landscapes I have come across in my travels around the UK.
It's often marketed as the 'Outdoor Capital of the UK' centered around Fort William at the foot of mighty Ben Nevis.
This view is looking west across Loch Eil towards Glenfinnan on the 'Road To The Isles'.

The view along Loch Shiel from above its head at Glenfinnan in Lochaber, showing the mountains on its south-east shore and Eilean Ghleann Fhionainn. It was at Glenfinnan that Bonnie Prince Charlie raised his standard in August 1745. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/glenfinnan/glenfinnan/index.html
