In reply to J72:
Yeah, the valley routes are also fairly inspiring so you could spend a good few days exploring the range, particularly if you wanted to take in some of Tarf and Tilt, Glen Feshie, Glen Avon etc. Plus a Cairngorm valley route has the potential for pretty much everything the British mountains can throw at you except steep icy ground - even the main passes get up to about 800m, you can get blizzards, river crossings, navigation in zero visibility, deep snow etc.
Or you might get a mild patch with almost no snow on the ground and be pottering around in a t-shirt picking off munros. Who knows these days...
