I did a variation of the CWT by bike, the section from Kinlochhourne to Suardalenan seemed fine, I don't remember any horror crossings and it was by no means dry when I did it.
Likewise, we stayed in Barrisdale bothy just the other night, not the nicest bothy I've been in, definite whiff of **** when we entered, but it was out of the midgies and we didn't notice the smell after five minutes, might just have needed the door opening and closing a few times. The lights were actually off permanently when we were in, and the generator seemed to run between 8pm and 10pm, not exactly pleasant but didn't ruin our night's sleep. I guess if we hadn't wanted somewhere to sit and chat etc. a tent might have been a nicer option.
