Good report Gammylegwalker.
Corrie Fee looks spectacular. I done it in April with snow still around. We went up the Scorrie and it was damn steep :lol: a better idea would have been to come down it as mountain thyme done. Oh, and the older gentleman. Good luck on the Inn Pin. :D

Congratulations mountain thyme on your 100th munro. :D
