Walking in the Cairngorms this Saturday 26th

Walking in the Cairngorms this Saturday 26th


Postby cairngormswalker » Fri Jan 18, 2013 8:43 pm

Last week six of us, and two dogs (three if you count the random and agressive mountain rescue dog that followed us for a good while) went for a lovely winter walk up the most north easterly Cairngorm: Bynock More.

Wondering if any of the people on that walk, or anyone else, would like to do another walk in the Cairngorms the weekend after next i.e 26th or 27th of January?

It looks likely that 3-4 of us will be heading out this saturday.
Route will depend on conditions. Definetly in north east scotland.

We were looking at Meall Chuaich, not sure what the roads will be like though, but this walk starts just off the A9

That's not a bad shout Graeme!! Was hoping the A9 would have been kept clearer but doubt many will be venturing out this weekend. :(

The A9 will be clear :D
Parking at the bottom of the hills will be the difficult part :(
I've heard ther's not much snow up north?
