A good day out in decent conditions - me only again , left Oskar at home , great high start from car park at ski area , easy climb onto plateau leading to Ben Macdui - great views all round , quite a tricky decent down beside the Allt Clach nan Taillear onto C a`M ridge , met a large group here making their way up - 30 + strong , Dof E or possibly Forces on exercise from down south.
Nice break on C a`M chatting to 3 guys from Lanarkshire , hot on top , again great views all round , stiff decent to Lairig Ghru , which was VERY busy with walkers heading south & 1 jogger who stopped for a chat , a great day out !!
No fotos on here - again home PC still sick ---------- did put fotos on TH via FB at the time , great route to do these 2 hills
only 4 left in Cairngorms now , then to tackle another part of Scotland - it`s all good.
