Parked roadside at HP 5728 0359, could have driven further but with combining Rekna Houll on the walk this was a good finishing point - also there were 3 gates between here and the cemetery, 2 on latches, one tied. After cemetery took a dirct line to here. Blue Mull trig bolt esily found on summit rock. Followed cliff edge round for a view of Lamba Stack, then took a direct line to Rekna Houll.jonglew25/06/2019
