A twilight visit, but still an easy find. Could really benefit from a proper dig around and clean up though.

Nothing new to report, visit as per everyone else below. Such a simple find I forgot to take a GPS reading. Next time I pass by I will.

Nothing to add other than to confirm that it is still there and in the condition previously described.

Very easy bag from road, with handy gateway to pull into, on the way to Aviemore, the scenic route!

Approx 10m into a field, good parking and easy access over a field gate. OSBM plate now below ground level; height tag missing, otherwise good.

Parking as previous visitors. Feisty ram came to check me out when I was photographing FBM. Kept watching me as I climbed the fence and returned to car

Thought I'd treat myself to a nice easy one following my earlier traipsing through the heather to reach Tuliemet Hill, so made a short diversion for this FBM. All well, with a large log still nestling against it.

About 15m W of road, 1m S of fence. Almost buried by snow but clear of log pile - which is much diminished.

Good condition FBM with pile of logs nearby (but not on top of it!). Easy parking at the gate, plenty of space. Height tag missing (what a surprise....)

A nice easy FBM as i was heading past to go for a few days of doing Munros in Glenshee & beyond. A handy parking space in front of gate opposite Glenkilrie Farm,FBM can be seen easily from the gate but went through to get a photo. Can't believe it's not been logged for nearly 4 years. Assume that it may have been covered by logs at times,but only a few there on this occasion.

TomTom pointed this one out as I passed by after visiting TP1281 - Ben Lawers. Didn't hold out much hope of it still being there though - not with all the log piles and upheaval evident. Found it tucked away round the back of logs, just about missed during stacking. Very lucky!

TT beeped for a trig at the side of the road, so we stopped to see if we could see anything- were almost blinded by the sun shining off the plaque! Easy to find on a sunny day!!!

Again, puzzled by the vast aray of suitable rocks, walked past it and then saw it below me. Bog standard granite block, attractive surroundings, other than that bloody mast on Mount Blair.

Cunningly disguised amongst rocks of a similar colour and in shaded light it took a while to stumble across. No height given and becoming seriously overgrown. Parked about 20m away from it.
