Drew, do you know anything about the cairn on Pittenerich, just south of Pressendye summit cairn. It's big. Nothing on Canmore about it. I just wondered how old it is.

I know of it's existence (will visit when doing Stot Hill in the hols) and was going to ask some of the Banchory Heritage people about it.

is that for Cairn Mude, west of summit? I've been up for the trig from the east. I remember it being quite hard work and full of flies. not good.

Cairn Mude yup, plus there is a long cairn. Tried to get up fae the west and the ring cairns at Newton. Another day getting battered and bruised by onything that could bite, scratch and puncture. A forced retreat to pub the in Lumphanan was required.
