Last weekend an intrepid group went to @MarLodgeNTS to walk 19km 'fieldwalking'. We thought the likelihood of finding lithics was v low-but they did! Including a flint blade. More trips are being planned. Working with @NTS_archaeology @diggermann17 @GraemeMWarren @AliTheArchaeol

Vital hunter-gatherer safety equipment! Two Supalite four person Bothy shelters, and two Mountain First Aid kits ... ordered ready for the upcoming Cairngorm sub group outings. Many thanks to @Scotmid Community Fund who gave us £150 towards the cost of this important safety kit
