A brief wander in the Spey valley on the route back south. This is the view east from Creag Far-leitire in Glen Feshie’s Inshriach Forest towards the foothills of the Cairngorms, the highest of which should be Ben Macdhui but I’m not sure if its actually on the skyline.
It’s not my first visit to Inshriach, having orienteered there twice before and organised a training camp. The pine covered moraines provide detailed navigational challenges.
There are four Uath Lochans, three small and one larger. They were created when the kilometre thick Strathspey glacier was melting leaving behind huge chunks if ice in kettle holes. It was this ice that forming the lochans.
