The Scottish Isle of Jura off the west coast of Scotland

Isle of Jura Winter Scenes

February 28, 2010 by Ron Leave a Comment

The winter in this part of Scotland has been unusually cold with many days of snow and frosty nights. The gales that usually batter the island in the winter took a detour and what was left were a lot of sunny and crisp winter days. The Paps of Jura have been covered in snow for most of the winter and this situation hasn’t changed so far. A friend visited the island on one of the darkest days of the year, 28 December 2009, and sent me a couple of images from the snow covered Paps and from other places on Jura. A lovely set of images which give you an idea how the island looks in the winter. Enjoy!
