Found 3 geocaches (
geocaching) in Unst and the only one in Yell today. Long hill walk to the first one on Hermaness, didn't go on to find the puffins but saw a couple of gannetries and Britain's most northerly rock. John took a route new to him on Hermaness so I could find the geocache and niether Craig or I had been there before - took a geocache to get me there! The location of the Yell geocache was also new territory to all of us.

Gannetry (each white dot is a gannet):

Signs of a dry summer, this peaty pool is dry and the peat exposed and cracked:

Stored at Skaw in a bunker - amazing what you find at the top of a hill!:

Bobby's Bus Stop, site of a geocache:

Craig playing what has to be the largest percussion instrument I have seen! Very tuneful, brass pies cut to length and fixed into the boat:
