The last in a series of caches taking you up the route to the Munro, Mount Keen.
Follow the well defined path from the last cache/cairn up the soft slopes to the summit of Mount Keen where you'll find a Trig point, and probably a very welcome wind shelter!! The views from the top are stunning, especially that of Lochnagar to the West and further North to the Cairngorms.
The cache was tricky to hide and isn't too far from the path; very close to the famous 'B' stone. Please rehide carefully.
Please be aware that in good conditions this is still a strenuous walk but in bad conditions extreme care should be taken as it can be very dangerous. Weather conditions can change in a matter of minutes and all the usual warnings apply when walking up munros. The following points should be observed (Thanks Snaik!)
You are responsible for your own safety.
Are you fit enough to complete your chosen walk in the available time?
Know where you are going on the walk and follow the route on your map.
If in a Group know how many are in your party and stay together, never split up.
Ensure you have enough food plus emergency rations
Carry a map & compass, survival bag, torch, whistle and small first aid kit. Know how to use them.
In severe winter conditions you must carry an ice axe. You are also recommended to carry crampons.
Learn how to use your equipment
Cold temperatures will reduce the life of your batteries
Please leave your route with a responsible person.
