Snow widespread in the UK but all clear in Stirling although Ochils have a coating so a perfect day to take a walk. Took car to Alva Glen and cut across to Silverburn and walked in to the valley . I always like this view of the waterfall just as you leave the car park. No snow here but it wasn't long before I was in it.
This is the view of Craighorn as I walked along the west side of Ben Ever. As I got deeper in to the valley the cloud descended and it began to look as if I wouldn't get a view from the top so I turned around and decided instead to climb The Nebit which was at the back of me and bathed in sunshine. One of the benefits of being retired - I can just go back another day !
As I headed back down towards The Nebit this is the view of Craig Elsie and Mid Cairn which I had climbed earlier but not taken any photos
This is the view of The Nebit as I headed back down - felt like one of the wise men following the light!
This is me looking back up the valley ( from whence I had come) from the top of The Nebit with Craighorn on the left and Ben Ever on the right
At the top the skies cleared and there was clear blue sky all around with absolutely stunning views - would have probably been ok heading for Ben Buck but at the top of Nebit took a call from Carol looking for me to pick her up from work so everything turned out ok
