We go over the pass to Glenelg, once over there are 2 ways to it (1 from the bottom of the pass before Glenelg, one past the brochs after Glenelg) will decide which way in we go at the meet.

Anyone fancy Beinn Sgritheall on the Friday?

Before you all jump at this fantastic opportunity could I just mention that, given I have a bit of a drive to get there, would be looking at a 10.00 start at the earliest.
