Loch Morlich pt 1
I got up early this morning and went to Loch Morlich for the sunrise. It was very cold and my hands are still thawing out as I write this but the sunrise was worth it.

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.

Inverness
I am walking parts of the Great Glen Way and the Caledonian Canal today. Also it is time to buy some new boots!
The Great Glen Way makes its way out of Inverness along the river and across the Ness Islands.
Not many photos today, too grey and wet. I did get some boots.

It rained whilst I was walking but in a “good way”!
The small loch was almost frozen over.
