Always a joy

Taking it easy

There was another dusting of overnight snow in The Cairngorms. Staying below freezing above about 1000m There was definitely ice around compared to yesterday. The crags looking rimed and icy. Strathspey was in cloud for much of the day, a restively common occurrence during the winter months. Some beautiful cloud formations as the day wore on and by mid afternoon there was some blue skies around. The Mountain Hare is still in his Autumn  pelage. Relatively easy to spot today and of course leaving his prints everywhere in the snow. Sustained winter conditions for quite some days to come and some further light snowfall again tomorrow. Good, steady start to winter.
