Chuffed with myself bagging this one on the way down from Meall Crubenmore. Spotted the milestone from about 400m off and just headed straight for it.

Quick stop on long journey south. The Dalwhinnie 4 milestone is a great help in finding this heather dweller. Pulled up on roadside with hazards on and fairly quickly found the FBM. Seems to be in good order.

Located approx 15-20m W side road in rough heathery ground. Tricky to spot in the dark. Nothing to reference it to other than the Milestone mentioned by others. Height tag missing otherwise good.

An easy find after reading previous logs. I didn't realise there should be a height marker, hopefully I will eventually find one that still has one on it.

Spotted quickly by Mr TJR, in good condition not far from milestone just over the fence, ground is a little boggy but not too bad.

Log #73. First log after a two-week hiatus (car troubles and horrendous weather). Peeled off the A9 at the Glentrium/Crubenmore turn-off and followed the road along to the mile marker. Found the benchmark thanks to Rob's directions, only one fence to clamber over. Saw a group of deer running along the hillside under the mast, and my old nemesis, the ScotRail service to Perth.

Found on the way up to Ullapool for a weekend in the West Highlands. The YOSM geocache has visited this FBM so seemed a convenient place to stop off to break the journey up a bit.

Positioned right next to a Mile Stone for Dalwhinnie. Very reminscent of TP0492 Spean Bridge, certainly in its position from the road. Nice quiet lane so no parking issues. Got a funny look from a passing cyclist, but nothing unusual there.

The milestone is a good marker, but the FBM was only just poking above the heather.
TP0493 location It peeps above the heather in front of the right-hand rock.
