Winter Ice
Winter Ice

Back at the near end of Dubh Loch once again in the Scottish Highlands and the smooth ice stretches out. Looking to the right of the Loch you can see the footprints my micro spikes have left in the ice as I walked back along the top of the Loch.

Adieu To Dubh
Adieu To Dubh

Returning to the path once more we get one final view of Dubh Loch in all its winter finery nestled among the steep mountains of the Scottish Highlands. I'm keeping the micro spikes on for the return journey, which, trust, makes life a lot easier!!
