Loch Etive Gathering - May 5th

[Dreadhead]

What a great weekend we had. An amazing place well worth the walk and paddle, superb company, and as ever rib splitting banter. Some pictures of the weekend I've pinched from Steve, Ben, and Bod, and a few from myself here and there.












spot the only two scots in the sun at a scottish meet haha

That looks fantastic! I've never been to Loch Etive but am familiar with the Ardnamurchan area, which Etive looks very similar to. Glad you all had a good time - do you do this every year?

 

[Toddy]

Looks like a thoroughly excellent time and place

Thank you for sharing the photos

Looks brilliant. Might be somewhere to drop by for a day while on my way to Fort Williams next month.

I spy an argos pro action hike lite! 😍

Love that tent sooo much, and not just because it only cost me £15 new haha

Looks like it was a great break. Pressures of work kept me away - they'll probably do for me in the end! Glad some of us were able to get away and enjoy the area. Keep posting future meets, please.

Wow folks such a brilliant meetup, everyone who was there is a new friend and i look forward to seeing them all again, hopefully soon, I just got back in newcastle after cycling 40 mile today, last 5 miles i had to walk as leg cramps wouldn't let me turn the pedals a full rotation, gonna write up my whole adventure soon, loads of pics and videos coming soon, sleep now though

Ooh. I could be interested, depending upon the usual caveats - location, dates etc. Hamish are you meaning Perth as a proposal?
