After a wonderful twilight paddle on the evening of my arrival in Glen Affric, I was very keen to get on the water again the following morning. The forecast for the week was for a settled area of cold high pressure and light winds to slowly drift away with windier conditions, snow and rain to come in at some point towards the end of the week. But where I was in the northern Highlands, some small weather fronts might sneak in to give short-lived snowfall. The local weather gave out warnings for heavy snow later on this Tuesday into Wednesday, so it was with pleasure and surprise that I found a still and calm morning as I made my way up the glen.
The first proper glimpse up along Loch Beinn a’Mheadhoin had me stopping the car and reaching for the camera.
