Muddy Moncreiffe Hill

[KatTai]

Lots of fun on this easy to follow waymarked route yesterday. Early on in the walk there was a carpet of snowdrops and further along the daffodils were coming out (they may now be regretting that given the change in weather!). It was a bit muddy in places - but that pretty much goes without saying as everywhere is muddy at the moment! - though there were pools for the dogs to wash themselves off a bit. Moss had fun posing with the sculptures along the trail. We detoured to visit both hillforts, the smaller of the two has a trig point at the summit whereas the larger one and the summit of the sub-2000 was marked with a cairn. We could see snow on the hills in the distance, and it looked like there was some good snow cover on East and West Lomond, but over here it felt a lot more like spring!

Oh bee hive!

I think Zena was enjoying the views too!

Spot snowy East and West Lomond in the distance!

From the summit there is another smaller lump, the views are even better from this spot!
