Quadrille: Bothy Tales

lr-1010220-ww

The snow is fresh underfoot,
the colours of loch and sky
so soothing on the eye when
we hear distant caperceille.

The bothy at Ryvoan Pass
offers shelter among mountains
for all who love those special
places where wanderer’s tales
curl around the fire.

The mountain bothies in Scotland are free to use for hikers and maintained by volunteers from the Mountain Bothies Association, a charity which cares for about a hundred remote shelters in the UK.
