Please remove me from the list for now,,,looks like it might be simpler to pay more for a hotel room,,, as poss staying Thurs to Monday and would likely be in different beds on different nights judging by allocations. Will also consider camping but as the Inn wont allow this if beds available,,rethink may be required, :roll:

OK, so this one is getting closer now. Anybody got any Friday/Saturday plans yet? I am hoping to head north on the Wednesday or maybe even Tuesday. I'd like to polish of the Fannaichs as a priority and am guessing a few folks will have them in their sights for the weekend.

For the Friday and Saturday I'm looking at Seona Bhraigh and hopefully An Teallach but only if the weather obliges :roll:
Otherwise it will be back to Plan B :lol:

That sounds pretty good to me Evie, would prefer to get the furthest away ones sorted, may even try & tackle the 3 central Fannaichs on the Sunday before heading home. As usual the weather will be the boss :(

The Strathfarrar 4 are an option on the way up. Seanna Braigh from the NE is another, and there are a couple of loose ends round there that need tied up, namely Eididh nan Clach Geala and Am Faochgach. There's Wyvis too and all the Fannaichs except the western two.

Well you are going to be busy - no time for the dreaded lurgy anyway :shock:

We are planning to do very little, then suddenly kick into action on Sunday afternoon and have some kind of epic as per usual :lol:

Hoping to do Wyvis on Friday, and assuming that this will leave my knee the size of a football, probably looking for nice low level stuff on Saturday & Sunday :lol:

A few Corbetts for me I'm thinking. Have yet to investigate the map in any detail, but Sgurr a' Mhuilinn and Meallan nan Uan look good options.......as does the Little Wyvis too

I might bump into you. Planning to get off the train in Ardgay with bike on Wed night and making my way to Aulguish Inn for Fri climbing Carn Chuinneag + these 2 on the way.

What day were you planning these 2 . If it was Sat or Sun I'd happily tag in with you if you would like some company?

Cheers

Dave,

I was thinking the Saturday for these two, as it doesn't look too long a day. Company is always good on a WH meet.......I usually walk along, so do enjoy a couple of days with fellow walkers at the meets when I can attend :D
