'Hohe Berge' mit Geschichte für den #FotoVorschlag
On this day in history. This is the upper end of Glen Coe, a glen infamous for the massacre of the Glen Coe MacDonalds carried out by government troops who were billeting with them 334 years ago today on 13 February 1692.

It is late January and at last the snow.
I lie back dreaming about Glencoe
as fluent, hungry, dressed in red,
you climb up and over me…

A completely frozen Lochan na h-Achlaise, with the Black Mount in the background, from this afternoon.
Fun fact. I’ve been learning Scottish Gaelic for two years now and had to double check when I heard this name, but yes, Lochan na h-Achlaise does indeed translate to Loch of the Armpit.
