Loch Muick

Lochnagar

I got all keyed up to up the stakes in my hillwalking venture with a circuit including the lochnagar summit, my highest climb to date, the cloud level however was very low and at the summit visibility was 5 meters, the worst I have ever witnessed other than whiteout, I had GPS otherwise I would never had ventured to the summit on my first time as there are some deadly cliffs. After descending from 3770ft to around 1500ft it was clear enough for a decent image (not for long though) - so here it is....10 hour trip, six images taken - I broke a few personal records today !.

Stunning mountain capture! The view through the rolling hills into the Loch is well thought out!

Well done. Those boots must be well and truly broken in by now.
Excellent image btw.
