Further north than that too.


A few fairly big Munros just to the north of this glen, as well as some more to the south west.

Am convinced you're in Rothiemurchus/Glenmore area by the trees and can see a track on the far side of the loch but just can't find any photos with that angle :crazy: Loch Morlich ?
