Yip as i replied on Gavins post, looks very familiar especially that track. Great time of year to do these two

[The Rodmiester]

Like the ploughed track photograph , lots of snow fallen. It looks like the snow was quite hard on top and that you were not sinking in too far, which would have helped. It looks COLD though!

[Frigate]

Nice walk guys, that track looks like the Lawers road - honest

[Graeme D]

It looks even colder than when Kev and I ventured up there a few weeks back!

[Ian Bayne]

Looks cold good clear photos .A good day missed looked like a good day nice one

[Caberfeidh]

Excellent pics! Is the mine still used? What was mined there?

Cheers fellas,Saturday was the best day weather wise i've had for a while,glad that track had been ploughed though The snow was mostly firm enough to make for good walking,would like to have known what the wind chill was though,must have been bitter on nearby Schiehallion

Excellent pics! Is the mine still used? What was mined there?

Aye the mines are still in use Caberfeidh,a mineral called Baryte ,Gavin gave me a lesson on what is mined there and it's use,more info here
