Martin took this image after his run this lunchtime. It really hits home when you see it like this 😢

Ryvoan Fire – Lunchtime Update

I took this photo around lunchtime today after my run, and it's clear the fire is still spreading across the hillside. The scale is difficult to appreciate until you see it from a distance, with smoke continuing to rise across a large area beneath the Cairngorm plateau.
A huge thank you to everyone involved in tackling this incident. Hopefully the changing weather will help crews bring it under control soon.
If you're heading into the Cairngorms over the next few days, please check for any access restrictions and avoid the affected area. Above all, take extra care in the countryside while conditions remain dry.
