Glencoe ski station munros 21/11/15

Image
Glencoe ski car park was empty as we donned boots and set off the crisp air Not sure on the above pic its either Ben Alder or the munros on East side of Loch Treig Creise from the plateau of the main Ski area Some lovely autumn colours We skirted Bhuiridh on its west side was a nasty bit of ground too   We had dinner on the top Clach Leathad the views were stunning with lots of cloud and moody dark clouds Lee with Creise behind him      The temp was -4c with a fresh 25-30 mph winds at times,we had a few snow showers pass through A phone panoramic from Creise Meall a' Bhuiridh Dont know hwy but really like this pic

 So the last trip north beckoned,we had planned to camp for 2 nites but the forcast was for big winds and heavy snow...both can be dealt with but arent any fun for for Oscar,let alone us so we decided to drive up early Friday do a short walk and then another day walk on the Saturday,driving home on Sunday morning    Oscar sporting the first winter snows of the 15/16 season     We choose Ben Vorlich for the Friday and had an ok run of weather  Above pics from phone and below a few off Gopro First winter footprints   We stayed at StrathFillan Wigwams stayed here many times and it does the job well
