Interesting that the old Torpedo range is finally getting done up.

Think its called Capitalism Gaz where there's money to be made someone will make it.(and say its due to idiots who make a mess,the same idiots who will continue to do so at places that dont yet charge)

Well, I wouldn't go to place that looked like that anyway, horribly civilised! Red Squirrel was OK and a safe enough base-camp if you need to leave your gear overnight, but I prefer to be out where there's nobody. I agree, i goes away from what I'd though was the Scottish concept ...

Given all the cuts on funding for ranger services etc across the country I'm not at all surprised about this in fact i predict we'll see more of them. We call them honey pots and are for the vast majority of people who 'visit' wild places who only get a few km from their cars. There are still place in parks that'll hardly see any people. These sorts of places help fund the rest of the stuff that is needed.

Passed the sites today, both have groundworks done and some piliing being done.
This morning baout 8am I passed a large white van and brown canvas tipi and tents, they were setup riverside just down form the graveyard and about 1/2mile from the first carpark at Lubnaig.
But when I drove back from my DofE course at 5pm I saw a still lit fire smoking but no van or tents. Disappointed as the fire was a metre or two from the river so no reason for it still to be lit. It has not rained here for a few weeks so some grasses are tinder dry.

The shells are nearly up for the Lubnaig buildings, saw them on the way back from Snowboarding at Glencoe. Looks like tasteful/traditional stonework.
