Cairngorms Loop :: Day 2 :: Inner Loop West

Day 2 on the Cairngorms Loop. Day 1 was hard, day 2 was harder. Beautiful but physically quite demanding.
This is where we move from the outer loop to the inner and where things get tricky. We were warned so no surprises ;)
Peat bog, river crossings, rocky single track, snakes. It was quite the day!
We parted ways with Julien at lunch time. This was his 31st day on the road and he has had quite the adventure and has been documenting it at www.polarsteps...
