Peter Hill
From Ken:
"Well, our little stroll up Peter Hill was tame compared to these Aussie walks! We benefited from there being only one path up and returned the same way (note that one Ian). Ken, Ian Sh, Colin, John and Jeb assembled at Finzean car park (thats Finzean car park Jeb, not the guide hut) and drove another mile along the road to the sawmill. We took the landrover track across the Feugh and headed up onto the grouse moorland, eventually topping out at the cairn on the top of Peter Hill. Views were good with Bennachie to the north and a very snowy Mount Keen and Morvern to the west. It was balmy down by the Feugh in the intermittent sunshine and baltic on top in a biting wind. The grim-faced souls on the top in the pic are the ones without any tomato soup - that should be a lesson to us all. Two and a half hours round trip at the cracking pace set by Colin with his bionic joint. A quick bite to eat at the busy Finzean farmshop and for me a gentle stroll home. A nice outing to get us started on 2016 hill-walking. Looks like we are on for a walk on Sunday 21st with Gordon, Andy, myself confirmed, Stewart and Ian Sh probables and Colin TBA. Morvern would be a good objective but we'll confirm nearer the time when we get a forecast. "
Ian chipped in a couple of photos as well:
