Glas Maol & Creag Leacach



A claggy day with very poor visibility but good to get out anyway and good to get out with John again, it's seems ages since we've been out walking.

Parked the car at the Mast at the big Glen Shee car park on the other side of the road from the centre. A quick wander up to the top of Glas Maol past the ugly and dormant ski tows (not sure if they are stil used with better snow coverage) took about an hour. Quick sarnie then on over some patchy snow cover to the summit of Creag Leacach. Retraced our steps skirting round the 950m contour to avoid Glas Maol again and back to the car in 4 hours.

I wondered on the way back, after seeing a bloke hitchhiking, if Scotland was the only place where you'd give a lift to stranger carrying an axe?
