This is Loch a'Choire - we have climbed quite a way now - what you can't see in this picure is the looming peak of Ben Vrackie - we have only climbed half the vertical distance - and it's a lot steeper from now on.

| Well, we got rained on and started our long walk back - then it got sunny and we dried off, then, it rained again - again the sun came out and dried us off again, just in time to reach the Moulin Inn for a soup and some well earned beers.
Now almost back in Pitlochry, a look back at the peak we were standing on top of a few hours ago. |
