The Balmoral Pyramids plus John Brown 14 Feb 2010

The walk started on time at 11:30 with no problems.
Weather was cool but not freezing and the paths had been given a chance to thaw which made the going reasonable.
Cairn 1 Princess Beatrice
Cairn 2 Prince Albert - a very large and symetrical structure and well built 21st August 1862
Cairn 3 Princess Louise
Cairn 4 Purchase Cairn -built to celebrate the purchase of Balmoral in 1848
Cairn 5 Prince Arthur
Cairn 6 Prince Leopolds overlooking Balmoral
The statue of John Brown Ghillie and companion to Queen Victoria after the death of Prince Albert
I think everyone enjoyed the walk and we finished on time at about 14:30
