NC27SE 49 centred 29057 70788

Two 20ft transport containers have been airlifted onto the W bank of the Kearvaig River as targets within the Cape Wrath Training Centre (NC26NE 2). The SSW container (CWTC08 33; NC 29049 70760), which is painted green, lies on its side and its wooden floor has rotted. The second container (CWTC08 34; NC 29065 70817), which also lies on its side, some 50m to the NNE, is painted red and its plywood floor is intact.
