Creag Meagaidh


There are worse places for a lunch break......

Yesterday I was out and about in the Creag Meagaidh hills between Aviemore and Fort William. Wall to wall sunshine, and whilst it was sweltering in the glens, it was still winter on the tops, with a chilly breeze to act as a reminder that it is still March. Very Spring like conditions just now, with large but dwindling areas of snow interspersed with exposed ground. What snow there is is very soft in the sun.


First view into Coire Ardair

Looking back up Upper Coire Ardair to The Window

Not a good time of year to be on steep South-facing slopes.......

Nice views of the Cairngorms on the way home too---Braeriach from Aviemore
