It's quite a cloudy day but there's no rain forecast.
Sticking a quick pin into the map up comes Craiglowrie.(It looks better on the map than in reality).
After parking up at the Big Water of Fleet viaduct,I'm soon crossing the burn at Cullendoch. I've approximately a 3 mile walk in along forest track.
I never spotted 'Maggie Irelands Wa's',so I can't tell you what they are,but I was soon looking at Craiglowrie.
After a fairly rough climb up the 328 Mtrs (1075.84 feet)I was expecting at least a full view of Loch Grannoch...who planted them trees there ! 
It was a better view back to the viaduct.
Below is the Cleugh of Eglon,I'm taking the steep route down.
I've set my ten second timer on the camera to try to capure myself in perspective to the incline.
The boulder in the foreground's taller than I am.This could be Souter's Stone.
It's been a while since there's been any significant wet weather.Here I'm almost standing in the Cleugh of Eglon burn.(That's not to say I want the rain mind !)
I'd guess Maggie was a beloved pet,but possibly not.
Sandwiches and coffee overlooking Loch Grannoch.It's not as quiet as you'd think in here.Three road runners have passed me since I started out.
I'm led to believe that some of these drystane sheep pens are a couple of hundred years old.
Retracing my steps, I decide to build a structure that's higher than the hill I climbed.How's that for perspective ?
A view of the Knee,Cairnsmore and Meikle Mulltaggart.
There's always an alternative picture.
I'm soon back over the burn,and at the viaduct.After passing the time of day with some folk walking their dog I'm on the way home...
...after a stop to snap these Belted Galloways below Pibble Hill.A nice enough walk, but not one for the ramblers.
