| Burn of Mohammed |
Under threatening rain filled skies we set off from the Visitor Centre at Glen Muick and turned onto the Capel Road following the LR track to the path branching off to Black Hill.
At about 700 metres there is a newly constructed shooting shelter which we used briefly for a coffee stop.Then over the top decending through heather via grouse butts to Alt Darrarie and a lunch stop.

We then investigated the intriguing burn of Mohammed... How did it get a name like that in the middle of the Cairngorms? Perhaps there was some connection with the famous prophet? Although,the most likely explanation may well have been a spelling mistake in the translation to English from Gaelic. Will we ever know?..watch this space. We returned via the path along Alt Darrarie to the visitors Centre at Glen Muick.. an easy walk and a DRY day out.
