and on the tops in the distance
after the last couple of days of ferocious "April showers" Scottish style i.e.three inches of snow, hail, sleet and thunder interspersed with the brief appearance of a warm sun attempting to turn the snow to slush before the next onslaught.
Fortunately it didn`t arrive until Monday because on Sunday a group of us had a long-standing booking for a climb up Clachnaben. https://www.walkhighlands.co.uk/aberdeenshire/clachnaben.shtml
Last attempted on a day when the tops remained resolutely covered in cloud, this time the views were splendiferous and revealed the fact that there is more than just the distinctive granite tor to explore once you get up there although that is certainly very impressive
But a little further along, a trig point,
paths tempting us to walk further
(though we resisted) and Bennachie from the other side.......
A successful tramp, good company and all rounded off at the excellent Buchanan`s Bistro.......
