Pitlochry from the high hills in Allean Forest?

Date Added: 24 August 2013 Contributor: Norman Davidson Year of Photo: 1973 Picture No: 1927

Photograph taken by Don MacCaskill and image courtesy of Bridget MacCaskill, Strathyre. Don was based as Head Forester at Inverinan from about 1960 through to about 1968 before transferring initially to Allean Forest and then Strathyre Forest in1972.

No information on this image but the writer believes this is Pitlochry and Moulin from the hill ridge to the south in the region of Allean Forest. Can anyone confirm?

This photo could only have been taken from the hill at Fonab and is indeed a view Northward of Pitlochry with Ben y Vrackie in the background. I was employed as a Ranger on this ground 1972 / 74
Don Macaskill was Chief Forester at the time of me starting work there. Comment left on 22 March 2014 at 08:22 by Ray Thomson

Thanks Ray for identifying the site and town. I spend considerable time with map and computer maps trying to locate this one. Very interested to hear if you are able to locate some of Don MacCaskill's other photographs from Perthshire area. Comment left on 22 March 2014 at 08:45 by Norman Davidson

I only found out recently that Don Macaskill was my mothers cousin & given his experience, talents & love of the natural world, which I share, I will be eternally sad I never had the chance to meet him. Comment left on 08 September 2016 at 22:49 by Stewart Kennedy
