Hi Michelle,

Cheers!

Thinking of Glen Dessary group on Saturday or Sunday, if the weather's OK (ie Sgurr na Ciche, Garbh Chioch Mhor, Sgurr nan Coireachan, Sgurr Mor & Gairich, starting and finishing at Strathan) if anyone's interested in joining me.

Another thought is the Glen Quoich group on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday (ie Sgurr a'Mhaoraich, Gleouraich, Spidean Mialach & Buidhe Bheinn, starting at Kinloch Hourn). I don't fancy a long walk back along the road, so I see this as a 2-car thing, finishing about 4 km east of the bridge over the Loch Quoich arm - anyone interested?


Would be up for Gleouraich, Spidean Mialach on the Sun, though for your route and the limited daylight hours don't know what time you will start? You could leave your car at the base of Gleouraich, Spidean Mialach and I could transport you down to Kinlochourn. It might work that way. Speak nearer the dates, see how the weather is going.

Yes I think they can if memory serves me correct Mr Dewar has a walk report on the route which could be good for route and timing reference

This is my plan for either Friday or Saturday, repeat with others these two Munros and take the Corbett too. The other day I will do the two Corbetts on the North of Loch Arkaig is my thoughts at the moment and depending on the weather.

We should start praying for high pressure over Scorland :wink:

BTW Michelle, did you count how many people will be camping? We can't come on Friday because Kevin is working till late and we wondered if there will be any space left for us to pitch on Sat :lol: :lol: We drove past Laggan a few times recently and I had a good look - a nice patch of grass next to the building, hopefully there would be enough space to accommodate us all, panthers included :D

Hill plans: nothing ambitious. Ben Tee possibly or some of Glen Roy Grahams. Cant wait to see all the old friends - and meet new ones!

Hello Black Panther, I feel your excitement, yes I have counted our campers and hopefully should be fine, as most will be flying solo (4) and two couples including yourself - we will make sure we have space for you on Saturday, its looking like a good meet with a great mixture of legends (or leg ends !!!) and most welcome new folk. Thanks for getting in touch, will be great to see on Saturday, we have the quiz master legend to take us through the evening - Iv done Ben Tee, it was in the winter months, and the views were incredible, not sure what I'm doing, but will bring the mountain bike along as well so hopefully weather will be kind, iv been doing a lot of decorating lately so weekends have been spent scraping and mopping so really looking forward to this weekend x :D :D :D :D

After much persuasion and not being needed at home, it looks like I might make this. Don't need a bed as I will be in the car park, slumming it in ayeVan. Happy to contribute towards the hostel so I can get a wash!
