Re: DORNIE Starters.

alan.sloman
Let me guess.

Generally Eastwards?



WELL, EASTWARDS!
That would be great compared to starting WEST (as we did from OBAN), or that route of Mr Lamberts that took us NNE for 6 days I believe

Anyway, it appears from replies, that everyone else starting in Dornie has no bloody idea what route they are doing.

I mean, you'd think that the Vetters and Control would have looked into that.

Re: DORNIE Starters.

Oi! I heard that, Walker!

That was a jolly fine route, that was. Admittedly it got us no closer the east coast for a few days. And we did start out by heading west. But ah, the snow, the blizzards, the bothy nights featuring the White Album at Meanannach, and Luib Chonnal (with wine and cheese brought in by Alastair).

Then, sadly, it all went downhill. We headed east.

IT WAS INDEED A MIGHTY CHALLENGE.

Even plunging knee deep into bog on the way to Tulloch Station, the worrying railway bridge crossing, and the Crazy Deliverance type conurbation and then twiggy forest hell the following day.

Ah... You have to bloody love the Challenge.

I may have to come back into the fold and become the 4 musketeers.

Unless someone can talk me out of this Annual Insanity
