Very cold on the tops today, likely to be colder again tomorrow. Old snow is very firm, often with a short run out. Slips and trips will have serious consequences.

 

The main crags of Lochnagar.

 

The Raeburns/Black Spout area.

 

Descending from the plateau to the Col. Lots of verglas around and very slippy underfoot.

 

Looking towards Corrie Ciche on Beinn a Bhuird.

 

Ben Avon Tors. The highest one is 1171 metres.

 

A message of hope from Braemar Castle.
