Wha's crackin' peeps.

Me and Flan went on a bit of a road trip on a whim this afternoon to see if we could find the Mini-Peak-District in Glen...acihben? Clanaighben? Somewhere near Banchory.

Anyway, weather was amazing and the hike was long but we got there. And it's off the hook!!

YES!

Me and rory were reminiscing about Trace over a little training today.

I'm really game for this. Couple of days training there would be sweet.

Oh and sweet pics.

The area looks bigger than it is in the pictures unfortunately. The main peak which has a cliff edge on one side and fallen boulders on the other. Obviously there's no shortage of routes to takes or jumps to make, but as some of you know your technique changes and your tend to be on all fours to keep your self safe.

There is also a path which lead to a smaller cluster of boulders which again has plenty of variation in height. The rock on both peaks is fairly rough and scratchy, which really nice for hand and foot grip, just be careful though because if you fall, its probably going to leave a mark.

I noticed the path did carry on further and we had been told there was bits of old planes which had crashed into the hills in WW2, so I'm wondering if that path would lead us there.
