Sandy and Dave flew up to Inverness from Luton and hired a car for their three day break in Strathspey. They also successfully tracked the NASA Space Station on Tuesday night as the sky was clear and conditions good for a sighting.

January Speyside Walkers 


Roslyn and William Bruce stopped over at 'PARKBURN GUESTHOUSE' in January after the heavy snowfalls. They had a great walk in from Aviemore and a lovely meal at the Ben Mhor ( where a Burn's Supper night was taking place!). On Friday morning they were ready for the next part of their walk to Ballindalloch.

Husky sledding in Cairngorm Jan 2010 
There was another meeting for Cairngorm Husky Sledding Competitions in January. This year the huskies were able to use the sleds instead of wheels because there was enough snow. The event attracts lots of visitors and the conditions were ideal for sledding, skiing, togganning and photography.
