I had a good breakfast, packed all my gear away, and left the Glenisla Hotel at 9.15. It was to prove an absolutely classic Challenge day. I scarcely saw another soul while I was walking - and certainly no other Challengers. The weather kept me in my waterproofs all day, for whenever I took them off, it promptly started raining again. Never particularly heavily; but heavily enough to make one uncomfortably wet if not waterproofed. The country I was walking through was beautiful, and an interesting mix of forestry, marginal agriculture, and unspoiled glens and hills.
I walked less than a kilometer on the roads to East Mill and Freuchies, the followed the track between Cairn Hill and the Newton Burn northwards (pictured)
