Hi there,
I have been lucky enough to get the offer from a work collegue of a trip to the cairngorms.. He's a bushcraft virgin, so will probably be using a tent! I am worried about the whole Midge issue though! Could anyone advise the best ways of avoiding them? i.e. time of year/season.. What type of terrain to avoid.. Best detterent (being english?) ..
I also would be keen to find out which are the best spots to stop off at (not neccesarily camp though)...
Any advice is appreciated..
Cheers guy's!
