high winds at 60mph, avalanche risk was low.
I decided to explore the hills at Roy Bridge.
starting at bohuntine up top meall dubh where the snow line was, up towards beinn a mhonicag down the north east spur, and back to coire an t seilch then to leana mhor moving to the west towards coire stochdnaich, to meall an druichain to coire ceirsle then following the burn line down into the forest and back to bohuntville.
Avalanche risk was none existent at that altitude, however the purpose of the day was moving on slope aspect bearings to key features.
It made it quite difficult at first, but found it really efficient.
Poor visibility but at times the clouds did clear. wind of 40mph.
crampons were worn in some places, but the snow was fairly soft so it made it easier to move efficiently without, however an axe was necessary.
