It was a drab, overcast and showery day. With little prospect of a view from the peaks, around half of us decided to stick to a low-level walk and opted for the Clais Fhearnaig circuit, roughly a 10-mile hike when you include an inadvertent detour to Derry Lodge. The other groups struck off for higher ground, some taking in Carn Crom, the southern top of Derry Cairngorm, with the rest heading further afield to bag some Munros.

The first groups back went for a drink or two in nearby Braemar, where we all eventually regrouped before heading home to Dundee.
