Out trying my new backpacking tent the Nigor WickiUp 3 tent for backpacking and wild camping.
You cant beat some hill walking and wild camping in the Scottish mountains with the Cairngorms offering some rugged yet spectacular scenery at any time of year.
The weather forecast however was to be fairly stormy and wet so decided it would be the ideal opportunity to try out my new WickiUp 3 tent for the first time.
Also decided to try out an American 'MRE Ration Pack' I had received as a gift from a friend just back from over the pond. Had been saving it for my next outing and was keen to see how good it was and what was actually contained inside.
Heavy rain and high winds made for a memorable but sleepless trip as I forgot to bring my earplugs. However the tent so far has performed great and I am looking forward to trying it out more over the rest of the year.

![Wild Camping [ Exploring Around Lochnagar ]
Wild camping in Scotland around the stunning White Mounth Munros & Lochnagar.
My route started from Spittal of Glen Muick carpark just outside Ballater. The route from Ballter to the car park at the head of Glen Muick is beautiful but nothing compare to the impressive cliffs of Lochnagar.
It was great to summit so many Munros in a single outing, however Lochnagar is by far the finest of the summits and with the fairly good weather it was a hugely enjoyable walk. All the way round there was fantastic views with an amazing feeling of space and remoteness.
It was sad to see the wreckage of the RAF Canberra Bomber that had come down on the mountain, but is just one of many that have crashed in the Scottish mountains over the years.
Remember that this is fairly long and exposed mountain route and in good conditions the stony tundra-like terrain makes for easy going. However this area should not be taken lightly especially in bad weather and good navigation skills and equipment is essential as the weather changes fast and frequently.
Another great little trip that I would like to do again, this time during the winter!
