Great area with lots to do.<br /><br />The knee is sore but i'm taking the tablets and the 40% proof so things improve during certain times of the day.AlanRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07180571503542781921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7439013386414903935.post-19709644118819397252013-05-13T09:50:04.847+01:002013-05-13T09:50:04.847+01:00I remember these hills well Alan - lovely spring s...I remember these hills well Alan - lovely spring snow on the tops (April 1980) and the frightening experience of being caught in heather fires on our descent. <br /><br />Enjoy your trip and I hope your knee improves - you have my sympathy in buckets.<br /><br />afootinthehillshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06670636358354420373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7439013386414903935.post-33274023733188960762013-05-13T08:28:56.970+01:002013-05-13T08:28:56.970+01:00Yes we started from the Loch and then on what i th...Yes we started from the Loch and then on what i think is an old drove road and then up the steep shoulder through the bog.<br /><br />I would swop that walk from Old Blair for a decent internet connection though. Its so slow before you have connection the battery is almost dead.

I hope you did...<br /><br />My first Carn Liath experience involved, in my ignorance, starting the walk from the car park down in Old Blair and trudging all the way up the lane in sweltering heat.
