I note that what I knew as Heronsfield has also been re-named, although for the moment I can't recall the new one. Anyway, I've always thought that 'Sugar Bowl' was more appropriate for somewhere in Disneyland or an American Football stadium rather than the Cairngorms. It all happened before National Park status so that can't be blamed. Mind you, Disneyland is well on it's way to the Aviemore side of the Cairngorms as far as I can see!
