EASTER WALKING AT BRAEMAR

The Glenmore Walking Club's Easter meet for 2006 was at Braemar Youth Hostel. On Saturday I climbed Lochnagar with Brian, Phyllis and John A. Weather down below was fine but on top it was full-blown winter white-out. We descended to the head of Loch Muick via the Glas Allt waterfall and ambled back down the landrover track. On Sunday the weather was better, with sunny and windy conditions. With Brian, John A, Gill and Arthur I headed up the interestingly named Brown Cow Hill, a Corbett just to the east of Ben Avon. We started from Glengairn Lodge and endured a long landrover plod there and back which would have been great on bikes, especially with the wind behind us on the way back.
