A wee walk up an interesting little hill while Joe was at work. Great views> Mad but I had forgotten how less free to roam the English countryside is!!!

The forecast wasn’t great but we wanted to do something so decided on this wee graham but we didn’t just want to go up and back so extended it along the ridge and walked back along a track i rode along earlier in the year with Dot, Anne and Katie. The snow stayed off until we were almost back. Nice day and my longest for a little while.

A wee solo jaunt out to Spean bridge to climb this hill. Views from the top were splendid,, looking to Leana Mhor where Joe and I climbed the other month and the Innse’s where we were before Christmas. Nice to start to recognise hills.

After a fairly big ride yesterday with the petals I went over to Kenny’s in preparation for a big ride he has planned for tomorrow. I decided to have another ‘get my mountain legs back’ I settled on Carn Mor a Corbett in the ladder hills it wasn’t as sunny as yesterday and the wind still has a chill but the light was lovely and it was great to be out in the hills. The path was much better than I expected. The peat hags were easy once down I followed it all the way to the second ridge. Brilliant day. First Corbett of the year.

I have wanted to walk up this hill for ages, all the descriptions made it sounds terrible. but we actually gained height very quickly on a new landrover track and it was ok going to the top of Carn an Uillt Bhric. Then it did a get a bit peat haggy but still not so bad. From the top of Carn nan Tri-tighearnan it is get a bit challenging. then down a gentle ridge to another track. A splendid very windy day!!

As part of the Petal Power Mad March 24/7 challenge I decided to ride up Carn na h Easgainn for the summit challenge and then I could also tick off a Graham. Not that I am in it for the ticks! There was a very strong head wind going up so I did push more than I wanted to. Lunch an a wooden hut and a marvellous decent.

Our feet were still a bit sore for various reasons…joe walking funny after standing on a scraper and me because of my stretched arch. But it was a fantastic day in Glen Roy. Blue sky! WE found a good spot to park the van…could definitely stay over there. And there is much still to do. The climb up was very steep, the views were amazing but we decided to head down and not attempt the other hill we had planned as we didn’t want to make our sore bits worse. It was a great day. The stream we walked down the side of may make a interesting scrambly ascent in dry weather

Joe is visiting and that means hills, nice vegetarian food and company. the day started of with a low mist/clag right over Aviemore. I was hopeful ti would lift but it didn’t – well not until we were back down at the van and looking back at the top we had just been on. But it was a lovely frosty walk.
