Re: Dirc an Uillt Fhearna

Have you tried the Ca ma’ Choire? From the summit of A’ Bhuidheanach wander down the Allt a’ Chama Choire to end up at Sronphadruig Lodge. An interesting little excursion.

Re: Dirc an Uillt Fhearna

Peter, as soon as you use the word "interesting" I tend to substitute "knee wrenching" or "terrifying". :joy:

Oh Phil, you know me so well!:innocent:

Re: Dirc an Uillt Fhearna

Ah. The Cama' Choire.
:face_with_rolling_eyes:

I went that way with a much younger Mr Leyland in 1998 after A'Bhuidheanach Bheag on the way to the Lodge. Apparently Terry had left a bottle of whisky down there the year before and wanted to repatriate it. Quite why he had left a bottle of whisky to its fate I never understood. However, having taken one look at the hell hole beneath, (I had already unwittingly been Munro Bagging with the blighter) I put my foot down and instead we slithered our way round to Am Meadar and the plunge down to the Lodge.

And then, THEN, the b*st*rd cooked onions, garlic and chillies in olive oil in a pan only feet from my Akto as I was preparing dehydrated Rabbit's Droppings!

Pah! Rocky Gorges were nothing compared to that torture!
