Moruisg to Home (Fairburn)


A nice 40km flight with Mark R from Glencarron with an amazing moment just as we were leaving Moruisg to avoid a growing cloud that was starting to rain on us.

A golden eagle joined our glide and then suddenly turned 90 degrees in front of us heading for the shallow back of a deep coire in heavy shade.   I would never have chosen that glide.  We turned and followed and soon all three were in a smooth 3m/s climb to base :)

Great fun to climb in smooth circles with Mark above Scardroy before managing to land in my Dad's garden in Fairburn.

Cluanie to Strath Oykel

A grand day out with friends from Glasgow, Aberdeen, the Lakes and the Pennines.    A tired but happy crew met for fish and chips in the sun in Ullapool at the end of the day.   Big grins all round.
