Tour of the Western Isles: Inverness to Fort William

Lock at the northen end of Loch Ness

Happily this morning's bad weather in Inverness cleared around lunchtime and we had sensationally clear sunny weather for our drive from Inverness to Oban, especially in the latter half. So perfect was it that the whole of Ben Nevis was completely clear.
