Sister is visiting and we went out to this nice hill which overlooks Braemar. Meant we could have tea and cake afterwards. Plus she wanted to look at the Highland tea towels and other tourist tat. Was pretty windy at the top!

A lovely day out in the mountains. I’ve done these two before - Ben Macdui (UK’s second highest mountain) and Carn a’Mhaim, but I wanted to do the walk via Derry Cairngorm - another munro but not SOTA summit. The weather was lovely, but it was incredibly windy, and at some points it was hard to stand up! Another couple were out and managed some VHF contacts with them, and then two folks from Portland, OR - who are keen SOTA activators over there - are on holiday here and popped up on a nearby hill top.

Another SOTA activation, this time North of Inverness on the two Wyvis summits
Had a great time last week on a summits on the air (SOTA) activation with a good friend. We did Ben Wyvis and Little Wyvis - a Scottish Munro and Corbett respectively. 📻
