Looking towards Creag an Leth-Choin (Lurchers Crag) and the Lairig Ghru, Sron na Lairige on the right.
Looking North East towards Rothiemurchus estate and Loch Morlich.
Looking East towards the Chalamain Gap. The route through the Chalamain gap was a feeder to the Lairig Ghru and likely would have been used by drovers trying to get to Deeside from Speyside.
Carn Elrig 742m from Carn Odhar 734m.
Carn Odhar from Carn Elrig. Even with the spring like conditions, still lots of snow at this lower elevation, mainly soft underfoot with small areas of hard neve, Snowshoes would have been a good choice today.
Loch Morlich and Meall a' Bhuachaille.
What a vista for a sunset, after today's weather, it's hard to believe were still in the middle of winter, felt way more like spring.
Looking South towards Loch Eanaich with the Feshie hills on the right. A very defined East-West divide, most hills to the West of me were capped in cloud, very clear conditions to the East.
Looking East to Cairngorm as the sun went down.
Away in the distance, the summit of Ben Macdui 1309m, the UK's second highest summit
Great end to a great day although it was pitch black by the time I walked out back to civilization. More of the same tomorrow.
