The last time I slept in a tent was with the BB in the 1970’s so I set off early on Friday for Glenshee half worried and half elated not being at all sure how it was going to go.
Had a fairly straightforward plan in mind – Day 1 to cover the east 6 munros with my daypack, get back to the car mid afternoon, have an early dinner, pick up my big rucksack, head off west to The Cairnwell, Carn a Gheoidh and hopefully set up the tent for the night at Loch nan Eun. Day 2 to cover the Glen Ey 5 munros and finish with Carn Aosda. Sounded simple enough....on paper that is.
Parked the car close to the ski centre and walked down the A93 (this was the easy bit). Left the road at NO148797 down the heathery slope to cross the Cairnwell Burn at the bridge. Could see Carn an Tuirc in the distance and there was a track on and off for most of the way up the side of Allt.
