Not long back from a couple nights away with Smurf, I'll do the 'first impressions' and leave the full debrief to the man himself, he's the man with all the pictures and vids....
Friday night we ended up tarping by Loch Gamhna, a wee loch hanging off the bottom of Loch an Eilein, nothing fancy, most of the ground was pretty scrubby but we got a spot to rig a wee 'dez rez'.
Spent a refreshing night under the stars with some of my homemade dehydrated bolognese, braw, and as somehow some dirty booze had fallen into our bags we thought it best to consume it to lighten the load on the way out. Saturday morning we had a fatboy fry up and packed our crap to move on, like Kaiser Soze we were gone.....
The tarp worked anyway, everything underneath it was dry. We'd had some rain overnight but it was after we'd speared in.
Then on to our next location, Glen Feshie, it was about a 7K walk in (after a short drive) and we got to the bothy for about half two, I have to say its the fanciest bothy I've been to, I'll tease you with that and leave Smurf to do his thing, its worth a google though. We were in two minds whether to use the bothy or move and and use the tarp but with the weather we had I'm glad we went for the bothy, it was wild last night and we were toasty in the bothy with the fire going and again, for some reason there was a mix up with the bags and somehow we had some more dirty booze in there..... We were lucky enough to have the place to ourselves so we managed to put the world to rights in front of the fire. The walk out this morning was a lot easier with less weight and fresher legs.
Smurf, over to you........
