Two red 20ft transport containers have been airlifted onto peaty moorland beside a tributary of the Allt an Fhasaraidh Mhoir as targets within the Cape Wrath military training area (NC26NE 2). The SSW container (CWTC08 32; NC 28587 70289), lies on its side, its plywood floor intact, but its NW end is tipped down into the burn gully. The second container (CWTC08 31; NC 28612 70409) sits on level ground some 115m to the NNE.
