did a circuit today
 

Decided to do a circuit South today Banchory, Cairn o' Mount, Edzell, Glen Clova, and back North via Glen Shee, Braemar, Corgarff,Tomintoul and home.
First real stop was at a couple of 2000yr old Pictish forts/settlements (Caterthuns) on neighbouring hills close to Edzell.

View West.
