Corrour
27th December 2008 to 3rd January 2009

The 'Young Duffers' (plus a few undergraduates) spent New Year week in the remote Highland estate of Corrour, staying in a pair of cottages at Strathossian. With not a drop of rain or a flake of falling snow all week, it was perfect weather for walks up all the nearby Munros - eleven in total - and we also had a couple of spectacular cloud inversions! Definitely a trip to remember!
