Craigvinean collage

Having been spurred on by tweets from @CountrysideBen heading into the hills for some deep snow walking, I decided to head for another of my favourite haunts – Craigvinean Forest. Underfoot was a bit slippy in places but when I eventually got up the hill to head out to Dalguise, the ice was replaced with snow that was a little deeper than I’d anticipated. I did at one point consider just retracing my steps rather than going in a circle but kept going. For a stretch of the walk, my footprints were the only human ones. Absolutely wonderful winter walk with no-one else there; peace and tranquility, can’t beat it.
