Why don't more folk use bog free route to Fannichs?

A great report of another fine day out, and some lovely photos too

You going to compleat the Munros then Kathleen? not really that far off it now

Thanks Morag.

But no, I've no realistic chance of compleating at my age. For one thing I couldn't haul myself up the In Pin - even if I wasn't too much of a feartie to try it!

Cracking report and pictures The day looked really dramatic...looking forward to do the Fannichs as well!!!

A friend tells me he invented the decibog scale and the approach to the Fannichs from the north scores 10.
It was a great day out. We did smile all day, not just for the photos!

Knowing you ML you'll do them all over two days and with a self drawn map!

Here's another pic of smiling Kath. We really did smile all day - even when that wifie drove past us on the long road back!

Excellent Dogplodder, but if an approach to a munro was made for a bike the this was surely it

Great effort on a big walk with changeable weather. nice

Great report dogplodder,was thinking of this route next time i'm up there(it's in my Cameron Mcneish book ),didn't have the best of days up there last week so was looking for an alternative.You've now came up with the solution-no bike either though

[kath098]

At the summit cairn of An Coileachan we were joined by two guys who had met the guy on the bike, who had been wondering how the two women he'd met earlier were surviving in the snow storm.

No, if you remember the exact words, he had been wondering about the welfare of we two young ladies!

I think when we do the Fannaichs we will cycle in and camp. Looks lovely, another cracker there. You do always look happy on the hills. Hope Jack is OK

Oh not you as well Monty.... I thought you were a purist!

But you're right enough, a road like that is perfect for a bike - if you've got one!

Good man!

Reckon he must have left his specs at home then.

Hope Jack is OK

Thanks Mrs S. I suspect a visit to vet is due. Labs are susceptible to arthritis in joints - sometimes from over exercise when pups - and being a 'rescue' we don't know what happened when he was young.

[shredder]

That was a long walk. Just as well you left the old boy at home.

Hope the vet can sort you with something so he can enjoy his walks again!

Certainly a good way to approach these hills to avoiid the bogs - well done ! I see you still got the same mix of weather but it all adds to the experience - cheers
