Hi All,
Posted on behalf of Joanne
 

Fancy getting out into the countryside this Sunday?  There is still time to sign up, as long as you do so before 6pm this (Friday) evening.  A reminder of the walk :

 

Beinn an Dothaidh (near Bridge of Orchy)- Sunday 23 June 2013 A (Munro)

5/6 miles

Ascent 1004m (3294 ft)

Duration 5 hours approx

 

Although far less known that its neighbour (Beinn Dorain), some would say it has the finer viewpoint, the cairn on the edge of the steep northern side having a magnificent aerial panorama over Loch Tulla and Rannoch Moor.  The walk starts with a steady climb (crossing the West Highland

Way) and getting steeper up to the bealach - be prepared for some steep and rocky ground.

 

Please bring waterproofs, walking boots, warm clothing and something to eat/drink.

 

Meet at Fairmilehead at 8am.  Please let me know your ramblers number (or if 1st/2nd walk), your mobile number, relevant medical conditions and if you can give a lift.  My mobile is 07974 856440 and e-mail ja...@mypostoffice.co.uk

 

Please note - numbers are limited to 10 on first-come, first-served basis.

Walk won't go ahead in poor weather or mist, instead I will do a 2-part walk in Fife - Norman's Law (a Marilyn), 2 hours approx starting at Luthrie near Cupar, then onto Newburgh to do Ormiston Hill, 2.5 hours approx with beautiful views over the Tay.  I will let you know by end of the week.
