Glenshee Ptarmigan Meet

(5.10.2014) Glen Clunie to Glenshee Ski Centre via An Socach,18km,6hrs

Dropped off from the Ptarmigan club bus on the A93 at Glen Clunie then headed SW passed Baddoch Farm and up Baddoch Glen on the landrover track.  Followed the track for a few km before it petered out then we made our way directly uphill in a NW direction onto the ridge and took a bearing to the summit. After the summit we dropped down NE slightly due to the gale force North Westerly before taking a bearing SE, descending down the scree and heather back to Baddoch Burn.  We crossed over the burn and ascended the boggy, rough peaty ground up to Loch Vrotachan. Headed NE on the path to the summit of Carn Aosda which was even difficult to reach due to the strong winds. I had trouble standing upright. Descended down S back to the ski centre where we waited for the bus.
