Finally got round to finishing my write up of my trip to the Cairngorms September 5th...

Not all of the Deeside Trail but the mountain bits...

"There is a region of heart's desire
Free for the hand that wills
Land of the shadow and haunted spire
Land of the fiery glacier fire
Land of the clouds and the starry choir
Magical land of hills
Loud with the crying of winds and streams
Thronged with the fancies and fears of dreams..."
