A walk on a grey day
The Craigellachie National Nature Reserve is a short walk from the house here in Aviemore and is an excellent place for a walk on a cold damp day.

The weather is a lot warmer now than it was last week, but there is still ice on the loch.

Walking to the summit of Craigellachie
The day started off mild and sunny here, so taking advantage of the sun I headed up Craigellachie – which overlooks Scandinavian Village. It is a fairly straightforward walk, but most of it is up until you reach the “flatish” summit.
I also made a mistake, yesterday was not my coldest day. The summit and approaches were still frozen and icy, add the wind chill from the strong steady wind and it was several degrees below zero. But sunny.
One benefit of a sub-zero summit was that the boggy, muddy path was frozen so no wet and muddy boots on my return.
