They were lost, in the weather and then were lost forever. I imagine their fear and desperation, these two pilots. May they rest in peace.

You captured lovely views from Broad Law Glenda, it would make for a nice wild camp spot 🙂⛺
Cheers 👍

Thank you. Lots of places for a high level camp. It’s was extremely windy when we went. 70 mph gusts maybe. You’d never know by the photos/videos.

@@glendaandthepinkwarrig I had no idea of the strong wind, you must have a microphone sock?
On my next road cycle trip I intended to camp at the Megget Stone but if I'm feeling energetic I might cycle up the radio station track and sleep there.
It would be a great start to the day freewheeling down into Hearthstane 😁🚲👍

[@glendaandthepinkwarrig]

I turned my volume off. Bruce is making a film. That’ll give an idea of how bad it was. I’m staggering about like I’m drunk. It’d certainly be a hefty pedal up but the scenery is lovely and the freewheeling down would be fantastic.

@@glendaandthepinkwarrig ah right. I'll catch up with Bruce's video soon. Had you not said about the wind making you stagger about I'd have just assumed that it was the Buckie ... 😁
I've got 3x MTB gearing on my pannier bike and at what looks to be an average climb of 12% for over 3 miles I'd certainly need it!
Cheers 👍

[@glendaandthepinkwarrig]

It may have been easier to stagger about had I been on the Buckie. I’d have thought it was a good 12% climb at least.
