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.

We had a short out to Craigellachie National Nature Reserve.
It was only a short walk as a heavy thunder storm rolled in – we made it back to the house without getting too wet.
We watched it from the patio but it did not last long.

When I get some time I will post some extra images from my trip last week, that did not get included in the daily blogs.

Craigellachie Nature Reserve Again
Yet another bright frozen day, with a light dusting of overnight snow – a good day to go to the high ridge of the Craigellachie Nature Reserve.
Lunch on the top
When I first got up to the summit there was hardly any breeze and it was a great place for lunch overlooking the Cairngorm range. Whilst I was having my soup it started to snow, I watched it coming up the valley towards me.
This is the second day of wearing my new Explorer Trek boots. The tread gives a sure grip on both wet rocks and icy paths. They are very comfortable, warm, waterproof, and give good, high ankle support. They are large boots but they are still lightweight. It looks like they are a good buy and I am looking forward to wearing them for many miles.
Miles on the boots so far 14.
