Me on the cairngorm plateau

The next few photos are from my last trip up the cairngorms during easter 2007. Stunning blue skies and glorious sunshine made a welcome change. Last time we were up here the winds were hitting 140 mph on the plateau and the wind chill temperatures were -35 celsius and below! Visibility was nil in the whiteout conditions and a good number of folk were caught out. Another climber from Greenock was killed the same weekend in a tragic accident. The guy sitting down in the pic is my friend Steve from New Zealand.
