Birthday treat with Stu and Claire
Left Cumbernauld in miserable rain but the weather improved dramatically as we drove out to Aberfoyle, over the Duke's pass then parked along from the Loch Achray Hotel. Big group set off before us but we caught them just out of the forrest, they formed a birthday guard of honour!
Weather really clear on top with all the peaks being snow capped after lunch our descent was rather interesting through the woods literally, Stu has some rather interesting film footage. Finished off with a stop at the Laide Inn
