The stretch of road in view connects two other roads in the coniferous plantings on the western slopes of Cnoc Corr Guinie; OS mapping at 1:25 000 does not currently (April 2013) mark the road but it is shown at various other scales.

An unusual type of placename for this area, with its roots in Yorkshire.

The B9176 heading for Bonar Bridge

For light vehicles heading north, the B9176 provides a useful (and very scenic) short cut between Alness and Bonar Bridge. Ideal for reaching all those wonderful parts of Scotland (the old Sutherland) north and west of here. This would not apply, of course, if the destination were to the north-east (the old Caithness): then it is better to use the A9 Dornoch Firth Bridge. Just the same coming south, of course, but I won't bore you with another full description. (On the A9 there used to be my favourite road sign of all, "To Inverness and the south", but I think it no longer exists.)

Trig Pillar Cnoc Duaig

Looking SW, the OS maps suggest there is a footpath over the summit of Cnoc Duag down to the Ardross road. In effect, it's just a fire break, and the path becomes ill-defined at the base of the hill where the forest has been clear felled some years ago.
