An improvised circuit round Cairngorm

Snow very unstable. Burns were high today This would be entertaining to cross (we didnt have to) Shelterstone crag Stach Dubha East end of Loch A'an Only the east end of Loch A'an is frozen Stac an Fharidh. Quite a bit of this ice fell off. West end of Loch A'an Stac an Fharaidh Fiona at the Saddle. Contemplating a snow free ascent.
