Natural stuff in glenshee is going to be pretty wet with snowmelt. Better off heading north to braemar area (10 - 15 miles). Tracks up there are better built to cope with traffic. Get an os map and just go exploring.

Am I right?

I know, 13* here (central highlands) today, rivers are hoofing down and no snow at all. Trails are minging wet.
Compare to last years Christmas with -16 and about 10-15cm of snow....

Loch ordie would be a good xc jaunt
Not too wet , easy going after the Xmas over feasting

And a nice little selection of pub / cafe for post ride

Otherwise glen Isla has some potential ( old xc ski trails )
