Sitting on the east side of the Lairig Ghru, Braeriach is Scotland’s third highest Munro at 1296m. Steep cliffs south of the summit lead back down into the valley below. This painting is a true reflection of my experience of Braeriach. This adventure, alongside two strong, skilled and wonderfully adventurous women was a day to practise winter navigation skills. Hunkering down like a Ptarmigan to set maps, calculate distances and take bearings.
