Friday 20th January.
Every now and again we get a respite from low cloud, blizzards, deep plunging into snow and poor visibility. Today was one of those. A beautifuly stunning mountain day in the Scottish Highlands, glorious winter perfection.

| Sastrugi - it's been windy |
Dave had received one of my gift vouchers from his wife for Xmas. He booked his Mountain Hare Photography workshops on a random day in January. He picked a blinder.

We had the entire hill to ourselves in the Monadhliath. Absolutely stonking day with great company. Dave is a very experienced winter climber and hillwalker. It was great banter swapping Mountaineering stories whilst we spent time amongst the mountain hares home.

| Great day for photography |
A great day to spend my Birthday 🎂 😀.
Back to normal tomorrow. Windy, cloudy. A rise in temperatures after many days of very cold conditions on the hills. All very welcome. We need a melt/freeze period to get the avalanche potential down. It will also make progress in the hills a tad easier. I've done enough snow ploughing this week, thank you very much.
