The Cabin is available this weekend for a meet. About half the spaces are booked already but there remains some space.
Currently there is no piped hot water, but kettles & stove can provide.
Conditions have been amazing of late however it appears to be getting mild this weekend.
Take the usual hut stuff, pillowcase, dish towel, ear plugs £coins, hut comforts and refreshments. Fuel for the stove. If you take hut slippers cleaning can be much less. Members are £4 pppn towards electricity standing charge (plus you have to feed the below rate meter). Guests £14pppn.
If you want to come on the meet please let me know. jamesd...@btinternet.com
The following weekend we have eight spaces at the CIC hut. Interest has been keen. Anyone not already noted their interest and wanting to go should drop me a line.
Kindest regards
Late in the day we have decided to base this Edinburgh Victoria holiday long weekend at our own hut the Cabin. Intentions were to be based further West however the attractions of comfort, cheapness, being only two hours drive away, and easy to go East or West whichever is best, won the day.
An hour to Polldubh (or Glenfinnan), fifty minutes to the Northern Corries, local crags of Creag Dubh, Kingussie, Farrletter and near to the A9 venues of Creag na H-eighe, Dunkeld (and as usual at this time of year check for raptors and don't disturb them).

Ah, OK I was really tied up with CIC stuff last week. At least CIC is booked for next year. I nearly missed it, the SMC have changed their booking system without notice (at least to plebs like us) again. It has gone from a strict 12 months to 13months. meaning we would have missed out usual slot in the free for all.
So just managed to book 6 places for 21 22 March 2025. £312
Just need Bruce to cough up his fee for the weekend.
I might check on an old friend and see if he wants out on a dreich night.
Summer meets out next week I think. Bruce and Doug going up to Cabin this weekend.
