Dukes Pass. Trossachs.

Dukes Pass. Trossachs.
We have already seen some photos from this walk but here is the essential seat at the top. This main photo show the view to the back towards the snowed capped ‘Ben Ledi’ range of mountain vistas. In front of us is the view back into the flatter lands below.

See PIP. ~ Just to the left, in that view–out of sight, is the popular holiday destination of Aberfoyle.

Enjoy full screen and have a good week.

We were almost ready for a sit down after the uphill climb but we had places to go and see, so a snap, snap and away we went. Very happy that you enjoyed these.

This bench seems to be facing the wrong direction. Lovely scenery in the background with a light dusting of icing sugar.

There was a big view for miles from the front into the big flat valley but I, like you preferred the back. Glad you enjoyed this.

Great landscape, Herb, with a beautiful variety of vegetation, a dusting of snow still on the mountains and just the kind of bench one needs to find at the end of a trek!

They should have put a double bench there so you can choose the view you want, because both are just gorgeous. HBM Herb.

A perfect place for a bench.............and by the time you've hiked up that far, you probably need to sit down for a while anyway.

The view looking back from the bench is just magnificent..........especially those snow capped peaks and I love the earthy colours in the foreground. It seems such a shame to sit with your back to all that.

Great to see an alternative view in the PiP............and while it's not as dramatic, it's certainly just as beautiful.

HBM Herb...............and have a splendid week.

You are dead right there Keith. We did need a few seconds to catch out breath again here but we were soon off. Both views were great as you say yourself.

"A perfect place for a bench", i agree with Keith!
The imposing mountain and covered with snow and on the other side the vastness of the landscape!
Splendid place for rest and to observe prolongedly, Herb!

Yes, it was like a dream in some ways. I know we have seen this sort of thing, around a corner at a peak on the high Alpine mountains too. Most glad that you enjoyed it.

It was pretty cool for sure. We were both wearing our gloves up here. Thankfully the scenery paid us off in big style as you see for yourself too.

HBM, enjoy the rest of the week too. Herb

Hi Herb
I like this picture very much!
It is a very different and exciting composition, especially so much snow in May, but that makes the picture for me!
An extremely sturdy looking bench too!
Best Wishes, HBM, a nice week ahead, and stay safe!!
