So last weekend decided to get on with September run so went out for the weekend to recce the potential routes and stops for the 2 days.
When we do the actual runs i get nowhere to stop for pictures as there is a large group of us so nice sometimes on a recce to get rhe chance to stop for a minute somewhere.
So just going to load this thread with the pictures I took over the weekend
On the Friday i picked Lynne up from school when she was finished and headed up to Pitlochry where we were staying at the Hydro for the Friday and Saturday ( decided to take the zed as the threat of snow over the weekend had lessened) as it was mid afternoon on a Friday still had Glasgow to go through and had dinner booking decided to take the direct route
A77 to M77 to M73 to M80 then M9 but we made really good time so cut off M9 to take scenic route to Pitlochry via Crieff so stopped for a couple of pictures on way to hotel.
Managed all the way up roof down got to hotel light dusting of white on hill behind hotel( probably from a shower)
Pitlochry average height above sea level is 387ft the first stop the following day on the recce is 2132ft so was hoping to be dodging the showers Saturday especially.
So Saturday morning sun out for breakfast clouds about but ok in the morning ( shower forecast as day went on )
So off we went not far from hotel when saw first proper bit of snow managed to stop down the hill a but before out of view.
Managed another quick pic stop before the Glenshee ski centre.
First stop at Glenshee ski centre ( didn’t stay too long as a shower threatened in the distance)
