Day 7
Blair Atholl to Geldie Burn
As promised Thursday morning was a superb day to walk through Glen Tilt, sunny and warm and it was difficult to imagine that the weather was to change so dramatically.

Having stopped for a brew we did not really want to set off again, but common sense told us it would be far easier on Friday if we got over the Geldie Burn before the rain started.

Having crossed the burn with dry feet, thanks in no small part to the excellent Dry Walkers, we took the first opportunity to camp for the night. By then there were signs of the bad weather and it was not long before the rain and wind started.
