Morven - always worth returning to

Just pausing for breath - it's been a while since we last did a big hill walk
On the look out for mountain hare and ptarmigan
Can you see all the snow on Lochnagar in the background?
Gail! Did you sign the Morven summit book in the wooden box?
Let me go - I think I just saw a hare!
Oh alright, I'll sit still, if there's a treat in it...
Let's get moving again Gail -it's windy up here on the plateau
So much empty space to explore...
What? A picture without me! Is that allowed?
Heading back down to the car - still going strong after eight miles

    The hunkering down behind the cairn out of the 'breeze' is duly noted! It has been windy enough down here at sea level, can't quite think of the brrrrrrrrr up there! Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx

    1. The only other humans we saw all day were the couple who suddenly materialised at the summit and offered to take our photo!
