Great pics, especially the view north to the bigger Cairngorms, really makes the uphill effort worthwhile.
I wasn't a member at the time, but it was great to meet more like-minded outdoor folk. Now I have discovered WH, there's no turning back! Lol.
Penny does you proud, she's a natural and very bonny.
Good luck with your future bagging.
Thanks everyone, we had a great day out and couldn't have wished for better weather. Nice to have met you too jepsonscotland and good that you found this site, it has been invaluable to me, the only thing is I keep finding new routes I want to try.
The reason I had thought about Ben Chonzie from the Lednock side was it looked a wee bit shorter and easier? Not to sound lazy but if I were to attempt it with my dog she is getting older so I am always cautious, perhaps I will be more likely to attempt it on my own. I noticed two routes from the Turret side via each side of the loch.
Well it is now 4 on the list as I went back to the Cairnwell, a nice easy ascent. I had both my mum and dad with me who aren't really hill walkers but really enjoyed it, neither made it to the top as it had gotten very windy and my mum is a bit worried by heights but after seeing my photos that there was no drop she wishes she had.
Penny was less impressed by this one as she isn't hardy for these colder and windy conditions. Never the less she got her summit photo!
