Wind farm construction has seen the road widened and it is now tarred only as far as Glentaggart. From there to the end of the mapped yellow road and beyond, it is gravel.

Road from Glentaggart Since the construction of the Kennoxhead wind farm the road has been widened and is now a gravel road. The tar stops at Glentaggart. There is a dispute as to the ownership and I fear another pruning of a yellow road. At the time motorised access as far as here was welcome.
