Northern end of Camps Reservoir The farm buildings at Grains are visible with Backwater Rig rising behind them. A half-built part of one of the many wind turbines being erected on the hillsides around here as part of the Clyde Wind Farm extension is just visible on the distant hillside directly in line with the farm buildings.

Track by the Grains Burn A view on a frosty afternoon in early December, close to where the small watercourse of Fore Sike drains into the burn from the hillside on the right.

Icy track by the Grains Burn Frozen puddles on the track on an early December afternoon where the temperature barely rose above freezing, if at all. New wind turbines have appeared on Dun Law and Ewe Hill as part of the 54 turbine extension to the already enormous (152 turbine) Clyde Wind Farm.

Backwater Rig Looking across rough grazing on Backwater Rig towards new wind turbines which have been erected on Ewe Hill, Dun Law and surrounding hills as part of the Clyde Wind Farm extension of 54 new turbines to the existing 152 on surrounding hills. An extensive construction project is also in progress further uphill from where the photo was taken.

New road, Backwater Rig This is one of many miles of new roads being constructed, along with quarries, cabling and, of course, wind turbines, as part of the 54 turbine extension to the already enormous Clyde Wind Farm which has industrialised many of the hillsides in these parts.
