Thank you for showing me what I missed out on! I did this walk 3 days before you did (Friday 8th) and while Corrie Fee was beautiful, visibility was very poor on the plateau. Looks like a cracking day.

Thank you for the comments. It's a beautiful place, especially the entry from the forest towards Corrie Fee.
I did it 3 years ago in summer - all in green so must confirm that it looks much better in the winter coat :D
