Well done Dave, that's another epic. Love how you are able to carve out new routes on the hills. Jesus, you and Electricfly on a joint expedition......that will be some read, look forward to that :clap: :D :shock:

Great report on a stunning-looking walk. Hope you find your GPS. I've lost so many things on the hill that I'm a paranoid now about leaving things behind.

Thanks Beaner, yep I do enjoy finding alternatives within reason :lol: but that's part of the fun beforehand with the books and maps.
Yep Electricfly too, as long as it's not a repeat if his Kintail epic...jeez.

Cheers Annie. Nope GPS no trace, new one ordered, so it'll probably turn up now

:clap: :clap: Nice report. Big day. Stunning views and pics. I'm toying with trying the same but in the other direction - theory being that when I'm out of gas I should at least be able to manage a long plod out. I can see the benefit of doing it your way round, though, so you can take stock near the end to decide whether to include Sgurr Mor. Thanks for the report.
