We will only arrive on Sat morning as Kevin works Fri till late, all plans are still flexible at the moment. TBH we have climbed everything in this area apart from Foinaven and a few Subs so if weather not good enough for the biggie, we will be happy to repeat any hill just for the company :D


I too won't be tackling it if the weather is inclement, fingers crossed. Am sure there will be plenty of other volunteers :wink:

Martin I am up for whatever walks, I have only done the Munros in this area so Corbetts are all good for me. My travel plans are a bit fluid at the moment due to the golf season and maybe on my own rather than original plan, so more flexibility.

Ah man, have I got to share with Big Tommo again! :wink: :wink: Can't get rid of him, it's like were mates or something..... :lol:

As for walking plans, we're thinking of going to Ben More Assynt and Conival on Saturday (2 or 3 spaces in my car for anyone else who wants to head there, I say two or 3 cause it depends on how friendly you want to get with the people next to you), doing Ben Hope on the Sunday then maybe a cheeky visit to Ben Klibreck on the way back home on Sunday. All weather dependent as usual.

Hello All
Just putting the feelers out for a lift back to anywhere nr Edinburgh on the Sunday.
If anyone's driving back down with room and can offer me a lift back, it would be much appreciated.
Thanks
