A Frozen Loch Etchichan

Yesterday's walk took us up Glen Derry to Loch Etchichan, down to the Shelter Stone at Loch Avon and home by the summit of Derry Cairngorm. It was blowing an absolute hoolie on the high tops. We almost had to crawl along the Derry Cairngorm rocks to avoid being blown over in the gusts of wind. We made it home safely though. More about the Shelter Stone tomorrow.

Fabulous shot and sight, albeit so cold looking.

Somehow, Issi, you have made me think of a hot buttered crumpet and a cup of Earl Grey!!!

Are you able to retreat to a warm place at night? Looks like terrifically beautiful but brutal trekking.

The icy cold feeling is so strong in this -- I feel like I'm seeing a cold, desolate area.
