Re: Cairngorm loop grp depart 2016

Went round the inner loop on Good Friday. Reasonably big missing chunk of ground after the bridge at ~021105, could be a surprise if you rode over the bridge (my bars didn't fit): http://napalmgram.co.uk/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/2016-03-25-08.33.17-e1459269583487.jpg At the entry to Glen...

Re: Cairngorms (or nearby) easter 2016

Well, as no one seems to be forecasting my imminent demise, the pics from the group depart thread looking promising and there's a reasonable forecast for the next 48 hours I've booked a spot at Aviemore YHA on Thursday for a 6ish start :-bd
