Skywatch Friday - Cairn Daimh summit and snow


The cairn and trig point at the top of Cairn Daimh, looking south towards the Cairngorms. I'm not sure what a fence is doing at the top of the hill, tho. Possibly marking the boundary between one landowner and the other - more about that tomorrow.

The snow at the top of Cairn Daimh was patchy, but the patches were deep. Here's my daughter beside one of the marker posts for the Speyside Way. These posts are about 3.5 feet high.


More skies around the world are at Skywatch Friday.

  12. Looks like you had a good long walk.

    Snow on top of hills is pretty to look at but doesn't get in the way of life!
