Aonach Mor

Yesterday I went for a slow run in the forest and stopped for a sketch . I had just finished the above picture of Aonach Mor when heavy rain came on again . There is still snow on the hills and every shower of rain fell as a dusting of  new snow on the tops. It feels very cold for mid May.
The mountain bike downhill series races were on at Nevis Range. The riders cycle down a precipitous course on Aonach Mor ( the right hand side of the mountain in the view above). Normally they take the gondola to the top but yesterday it was closed due to high winds, so they had to push their bikes to the top.
Hopefully the weather will be better for the world championships on the 6-7th  June.
