(Wind and blizzards are perdicted, lets hope not, but we will be prepared.)
Tomorrow afternoon we meet Kirsty from Afasic to go over sponsor forms etc. so keep a look out for that information. We will then head to Crieff to stay for two nights in the friendly B&B James Cottage where we have booked the Rob Roy McGregor room (see below).
Sat morning after Breakfast we will head for Ben Vorlich and Stuc a' Chroin. This is a
straightforward hillwalk (weather permitting) to Ben Vorlich. Route on to Stuc a'Chroin involves a rocky scramble or an alternative scree path, whilst return crosses boggy eroded ground.
Ascent is 1145m - For more information on this walk click HERE!
Weather is not meant to be brilliant, lets hope it's ok.
If all goes well, weather ok and after a nice evening, another fab breakfast on Sunday we plan to head for Loch Tay and walk Meall nan Tarmachan. This is one of the easier Munro's to reach in good weather thanks to a high level start point, but it is really just the start of a rocky ridge traverse which is one of the most interesting in the Southern Highlands.
Ascent 768m - For more information on this walk click HERE!
Hopefull good weekend walking, and some good pictures to back this up. Will post blog on Mon/Tues.

Good Luck! 768m and 1145m elevation changes, in stormy weather, sound pretty challenging to me. We look forward to a report - and, hopefully - some photos, when you get a chance!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
Okay they weren't able to make it to the top today, the weather is too horrible. They couldn't even stand up the wind was that bad. They did get to check out their wind tent though, haha. Apparently it's very cosy. :)
