Hi Colin,

Welcome to the Challenge. Don't worry, the routes you've mentioned obviously require FWAs and the two day options for those are perfectly acceptable. For the Lairig Ghru, if you're approaching from Kingussie, it clearly makes very good sense to look at the weather forecast before deciding whether to head for Aviemore or towards Glen Feshie.

The trap to really avoid is the situation where your route contains multiple FWAs with a series of alternatives and your route on paper begins to resemble an octopus. That's usually a sign that matters are growing too complex. Keep it simple is the motto.

Hope that helps

Colin

Thanks Colin, that's a great help yes - guess I'd better get on & fill out the route sheet now!
Cheers, Colin
