Evening,

Walked the dog at Gartly Moor once (from Forestry Comission car park), last year I think. Big patches had been cleared and re-planted recently but think the wider area would be well worth a bit of exploring. Older stands of mixed woodland (but mostly pine type plantation I think) and a quarry if I remember correctly. Didn't see much of the area so would be up for a fact finding mission sometime.

Hi

Just saw this post...don't know how I missed it earlier!

I've been up Gartly Moor on many an occasion and have ridden bikes and horses, walked, ran and skied around the area...it is a great spot, and would be well worth a visit to recce it for 'bushcrafty' activities. Some areas have been clear-felled recently, but there is still a good mix of different age-classes of forest, as DB points out; quite agree with him about the fact-finding mission.

A'ra best,

DM ;)
