Meet Report
18th to 20th July 2008 - Black Rock Cottage, Glencoe
Friday evening and 10 hardy souls made it through the mist, rain and midges to
Blackrock Cottage which was soon transformed into a warm haven from the
elements. The Saturday dawned, well, misty and wet. Some considerable time
was spent planning routes to coffee shops or shopping in Fort William before
Kate, Judith, Penny and Ian set out for a day on Sgor na h-Ulaidh. The others
(Alison, Kenny, Anne, Ron, Fiona and Martin) headed off for a day's scrambling
on Bidean.
Sunday and a determined crew of baggers headed out to Glas Bheinn Mhor. From
there Penny and Kate continued to Ben Starav while Ian and Judith trotted up
Beinn nan Aighenan and all four finished back at the cars within 10 minutes of
each other. It's not entirely clear what the others did, but suspicions
abound that an early return and catching up on the Tour de France or Big
Brother was on the agenda.
