After a few lighter going hills and gentle forest walks, it was decided time to try out a proper hill - or dare I say it, mountain!!
2760 feet, nearly a Munro, so I was a bit proud of myself for the climb and the first to such a height for me... (thought it should be noted, this was an "easy" climb for anyone who does it regularly).
Anyways, a quick waterfall picture on the starting path as we set off at around 830am...
Weather wasn't great as we set off and the peak was in low cloud and only revealed itself a few times...
Very quickly we were into the low cloud...
Looking back, we could see down the valley with Pitlochry in the foreground and the River Tay winding through... Mist sitting on the river at this time of day:
A little mountain stream...
As we approached the hill (or can I call this one a mountain?
), it was masked in cloud...
Small loch (lake for the English folks
) at the foot of the climb...
Then, a stroke of luck as we started the climb - the weather broke
Diane, patient as always with all my pictures

The clearing clouds made for some nice sky pictures, popped on a circular polariser at this stage which got me a little better contrast in the pics:
The sun came out for some arty shots into the sunlight (seems to be a winner for pics for me...)
And now with the sun out, better pics of the surroundings:
To the top...
Cairn in site!
And at the top! Proud little soul I am today, as above, first time I've made it to this height which although doesn't sound much, I'm not the fittest in the world at the moment though I am working on it!!
