Dawn breaks on the road over Ardrochrig hill
A cold, frosty, snowy but beautiful December morning travelling SW on the road over Ardrochrig hill. Just past the entrance to Whitelee Forest and the wind farm.

Road south of Ardochrig Farm
The road over Ardochrig is popular with local cyclists, giving a wee steep climb on its north side or a longer ascent on the south side. The view here looks south along the road just below Ardochrig Farm.

Car parking at Ardochrig
This is one of the entrances to the Whitelee Wind Farm. There is space for around 12 to 15 cars here and at 0930 on New Year's Day, all spaces were taken. When I returned here after a long walk, at 1500, there must have been 60 cars parked here and along the verges of the single-track approach road.

Entrance to Whitelee Wind Farm Construction Site
Almost the same view as the first geograph for this square but looks onto construction site rather than forest.

The main electricity switching station can be seen behind to the right. The wind farm is already generating although it is not scheduled for completion until September 2009.

Felled trees at the entrance to Whitelee Windfarm
Much of the forest has been felled here recently. There is still a sparse clump of trees on the south side of the rough road as it enters the forest and the windfarm. This view looks north through the trees, some recently felled, with Eastern Glasgow and East Kilbride just visible beyond.
