Southern Cairngorms Blog & Mountain Info

Another cold start to the day. Looking across to Beinn a Bhuird at sunrise.

Phone pano of the crags. There were a few people in the corrie. Most of the snow is rock hard but often the turf is not. Any slips or trips could have serious consequences with such short run outs.

Above the crags. I met Neil today who had a wander up Central Gully on hard snow all the way. Probably a better option the Black Spout. I barely touched snow, although there is some icy snow to finish.

A busy Lochnagar Summit.

Stags in the woods. The glen remained cold all day.
