Beinn Mheadhoin

A great weekend forecast so set off on Friday evening and camped at Derry Lodge. Gorgeous evening. Watched some black grouse lecking. Shadow man was there too:


Very cold at night - ice formed in my water bottle!

Here I am after Derry Cairngorm with Loch Etchachan below:


Slightly earlier in the walk with Cairn Toul in the background to the left and Ben Macdui in the middle:


One of the many ptarmigan pairing up for the season:

  1. Lovely photos Sorley! We just had our first dusting of snow this year, hail here in Carterton but snow down to 400m in the South Island and some roads closed. It's going to be -1C tonight.
