Went with Lorraine and Brian. Some light showers and a cool breeze but the sun came out later and it was warm walking back.
Saw a pair of ptarmigan with at least 4 chicks, snow buntings, wheatears, skylarks and a curlew at White bridge. Good views from the summit, especially with the cloud moving in over Cairn Toul . Nice walking back beside the river with great views looking back to the Lairig Ghru. Lots of people camping at White bridge for the summer solstice.
