After a reasonable nights sleep in Braemar we had breakfast in the cafe, before meeting up with Lee and Tony and heading for Loch Callater Lodge.

A slow start to the day with strong blustery winds and dark clouds looking over us. But this was all soon forgotten with the warm welcome at the lodge, and the hot cup of tea which was eagerly thrust into our hands.

Tempting as it was to stay we continued along the length of Glen Callater along to Jocks Rd at the base of the climb, where the wind was certainly picking up and making us all think that going over the top would be plain hard work and not much pleasure, so we all agreed to pitch amongst the dips and embankments along the twisting stream, and hunker down out of the wind for the afternoon.
