Saturday Run to Bothy

On the 1st Saturday of each month there is a run to the Bothy. With wet snow and slippy roads I held off a bit but eventually headed there along the Bogside at first then up by Ruthven where it was very slippery in places.
Kept on along by Shanzie where cycling was ok in the fresh snow but treacherous in the car tracks. Finally got to the bottom of the Hill of Alyth where the road was a bit better but with some rutted ice to contend with. Nobody at the bothy; no big surprise. Was getting the fire on and the bacon on the go when Ian turned up.
Got the place nice and cozy, couple of bacon rolls and tea then headed home back down the icy hill to the 5 ways roundabout at Alyth where the roads were clear all the way to Meigle and along main road to Forfar.
