Lodwick Point is one of many "Points" at the edge of a cliff that provide a good view of mountains, valleys and what have you.  Slightly beyond Lodwick Point is Elephant Head Point, perhaps named after an elephant trunk shaped ridge going off the mountain.

The views were pleasing, the flowers on the grasslands nice but the best of all was the sighting of a cute and willing to pose Giant Squirrel - posted a separate entry on him!

A monkey ambled towards us while we were at the viewing platform at Elephant Head.  We moved away but he was not interested in any human beings, he jumped over the railing to the edge of the vertical cliff, peered over for about five minutes, then sat as though in quiet contemplation.  Strange and interesting ....

Here are the photos:
