Day Pack
Ultra Sil Day Pack – Sea to Summit
I was going to buy a lightweight stuff sack/dry sack for using to carry some extra kit strapped to the top of my Golite Jam. However I have bought this day pack instead as it will probably be more useful.
here it is packed with my Swiss Army Knife for comparison
It is a 20l pack for 68g. On longer backpacking trips I can use it for groceries or for day walks out from campsites – when I was away last May Day I used my Golite Jam when day walking, this will be more suitable.

Aviemore – walking
I walked some of the Aviemore Orbital Path and the Speyside Way today.

Speyside Way
Between the snow showers and the sunshine I did couple of miles along the Speyside Way.
This shot is possible using Pro HDR – shooting straight into the sun.
Some snow video
Today was not a good day for walking – so other than going into Aviemore for a coffee, I have watched Stargate and Cowboy Bebop videos and the snow through the patio windows.
Sunrise – Aviemore
Sunrise was at 8.37 today and this shot was made a few minutes after that.

Craigellachie National Nature Reserve
Craigellachie National Nature Reserve is very close to Scandinavian Village, so with poor light and snow forecast for later in the day it is a good place for a short walk. As it was poor light I did not climb to the higher areas but stayed in the forest.
It was not so cold – so I found somewhere suitable, over looking the loch, to make some tea.
