Linn o'Dee, Luibeg, Sron Riach, Sputan Dearg, Ben Macdui. - Garbh Uisge Mor, link patches to Sputan Dearg, and down to Loch Etchachan. past Hutchison Hut, and out Glen Derry to Linn o'Dee.

Sunny, clear sky, very little breeze. - Perfect Spring day.

Perfect Spring day for a "Triathlon". - Biked to Derry Lodge, Hiked to Macdui, and found last of the snow patches at Garbh Uisge Mor, and down off Sputan Dearg to Etchachan.

Snow was consolidated Spring Snow, a bit heavy for tired legs after hiking, but worth the effort with a nice run virtually from top of Sputan, down the burn course to the first lochan, - Longer than Ptarmigan Bowl, and more interesting, and good width.

Was possible to ski part of slope off Macdui, and link patches across to Sputan, with just short walk to get onto snow again to ski off Sputan to Etchachan. - Lovely in the sun.
