  • Walking in the Cairngorms
    WALKING IN THE CAIRNGORMS About the Author Ronald Turnbull (seen here at the Shelter Stone) is based in southern Scotland, with a particular interest in long backpacking trips through the Highlands. He first slept under the Shelter Stone above Loch Avon in June 1988, and was impressed not only by the situation and the view but by the way it snowed on him overnight. However, his connection with the Cairngorms goes back further. He only exists because the ice of Loch Avon, crossed during a thaw by a direct ancestor, did not collapse. He writes frequently for the main UK walking magazines; his previ- ous book for Cicerone, The Book of the Bivvy, won the Outdoor Writers’ Guild Award for best outdoor book 2002. He has completed the 42-peak Bob Graham Round in the Lake District, and also likes hot, rocky, Spanish- speaking bits of Europe. For this book he has particularly enjoyed the ram- bles through Badenoch and Rothiemurchus Forest, and revisiting all four of the Lochans Uaine.

  • The Cairngorm Club Journal 069, 1930
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE CLUB. THE ANNUAL MEETING. THE Forty-first Annual General Meeting of the Club was held in the Imperial Hotel, Aberdeen, on the evening of Saturday, November 30, 1929, the President, Mr. James A. Parker, in the chair. The Accounts, which were submitted by the Hon. Treasurer, Mr. J. A. Nicol, and unanimously adopted, showed that there is a credit balance of £134. 0s. 10d., the highest in the history of the Club. The membership is 272, higher than it had ever been. In 1917 it was 133. The Hon. President and the other office-bearers were unanimously re-elected. Messrs. W. A. Reid, James Conner, and R. Sellar retired from the Committee by rotation and their places were filled by the appointment of Messrs. Leslie Hay, E. Birnie Reid, and Godfrey Geddes. It was decided to hold the New Year Meet at Braemar, and the Easter Meet at Nethy Bridge. The Spring holiday excursion is to be to Mount Keen, and it was remitted to the Committee to arrange Saturday afternoon excursions. It was also decided to arrange for a party to climb Lochnagar on New Year's Day, if there was a sufficient demand. The remit regarding the Corrour Bothy was continued. The President reported that the Allt-na-Beinne Bridge had been repainted in August. This was a first class job and the bridge was as good as new. Mr. Nicol reported that Mr. Parker and Mr. Garden had presented an oak bookcase to the Club as a token of appreciation of the honour the Club had conferred on them in electing them President.

  • A Diary of My Walks
    Climbing notes — May 1987 Sun 3 May Above Fort William — ORBS — Landranger 41 Parked in the golf course car park at 136761, and headed up across various fences and fairways to join a track heading up the Allt a Mhuillin somewhere near where the old tramway crosses it. Up steadily and above the forestry more steeply on damp heathery grass, up the shoulder of Carn Beag Dearg. Higher up the gradient eased, but the ground was rockier and the lying snow thicker, plugged away over Carn Dearg Meadhonach (1179m, 3868ft) NN175726, to reach Carn Mor Dearg (1220m, 4003ft) NN177721, 1 some time about midday. Short stop for photography and some food. From here finely along the famous arête, thick with snow; no obvious difficulties, and thence up on much steeper snowy ground to reach the flat summit of Ben Nevis 2 (1344m, 4409ft) NN166712. More photos, and then down the main tourist track as far as the lochan, and then on rough ground back down to the golf course. Mon 4 May Glencoe – Aonach Eagach — ORBS — Landranger 41 From Errachd, drove to the upper car park by the road in Glencoe at about NN173567, and from there up steeply on worn track to the high bealach W of Sron Garbh. Thick mist, but little rain. Turned W onto the ridge and up to Am Bodach (943m, 3094ft) NN168580, and so on to the up and down scrambles of the main ridge. Reached Meall 3 Dearg (953m, 3127ft) NN161583, and then more pinnacles and narrow paths. No views thanks to the mist, but noise of vehicles from far below.

  • Seventeen Cairngorm Munros by DAVID SUGDEN
    17 SEVENTEEN CAIRNGORM MUNROS : a father's log DAVID SUGDEN Not yet 8 o'clock on 1st October, 1986, and we stood on the summit of Cairn Gorm with a strong north-westerly gale behind us and wisps of cloud racing past. I viewed the days ahead with confidence and mentally patted myself on the back for all my fitness preparations - walking from place to place at a Cambridge conference and running one km back home when delivering a car for a service, all the previous week. It had been one comfortable evening that my common-sense had deserted me and I had accepted my 19-year-old son's request to join him and do the 17 Cairngorm Munros in three days "before you get any older, Dad". John had done all the preparations and there we were with rucksacks, sleeping bags, tent and rations for 3½ days on the top of Cairn Gorm. With a strong wind at our backs I had felt fine on the ascent. Thirty five minutes later my illusions lay shattered around me. With legs like jelly and creaking knees I rested at The Saddle and quickly made alternative plans. They were to cover the minimum distance possible and to avoid all unnecessary Munros! I would let John dash up isolated hills and sedately complete an easier circuit myself. I put the revised plan into effect immediately! Pointing out that I had climbed Bynack More before, we agreed that John would do it on his own and that we would meet at the River Avon at the foot of the next target, Beinn a' Chaorruinn.
