This is Loch Achray on a very quiet January day, the starting point of the trip still with autumn colours.
Image
We had to walk over this bridge to cross the river.
Image
First view of the mountain.
Image
The bridge is from a fairy tail.
Image
There is a beech forest to walk through. Two months to wait for the spring flowers.
Image
It looks like the tree felling is nearly over.
Image
Professional felling...
Image
Image
Image
Picea sitchensis.
Image
Safety matters.
Image
It's a while since november but the work is still going on. I think they are off at weekends though.
Image
A waterfall.
Image
Some frost at the high levels.
Image
A glimpse of Loch Katrine.
Image
Approaching the top.
Image
Hardtesting a make of mountain gloves.
Image
A frosty cairn.
Image
We had a cup of hot chocolate here with this view of Gleann Riabhach on the way down.
Image
A good trip.
