Unfortunately, the planned meet to Glen Garry has had to be rearranged. Maynes will not take their coach down the single track B road. So, staying in the same area, the bus meet will now go to Loch Lochy and (hopefully) park up for the day at Laggan Locks.
This will allow 3 main options for the day:
1. The Corbett Ben Tee
2. The Munros Meall na Teanga and Sron a’Choire Ghairb
3. Part of the Great Glen Way (this will be the walk done by the LDWA members)
Due to time constraints, it may be difficult to include both Munros, unless you wish to forego a refreshment stop or move quite fast (the “book” times for these 2 Munros vary between 6 and 9 hours).
Anyway, the usual pick up points of Elgin (7:00), Forres (7:20), Nairn (7:40) and Inverness (8:00). We should arrive at Laggan Locks by 9:30/9:45. If we take the refreshment stop at the pub at Laggan Locks, then the bus would leave Laggan Locks at about 18:15. If we leave Laggan Locks earlier, then we could stop at Invermoriston or Drumnadrochit.
The hills are still likely to be covered in snow/ice and appropriate winter gear (ice-axe/crampons) should be taken on this meet.
Contact Gordon Eccleston by email/phone/text before 9:00 on Thursday 12th April to book a place.
