Meet Report 11th -13th June - Scotland, North West Highlands

After some attrition to the forecast number, some five AC members and one guest made it to Dundonnell on Friday night. This is a stunning part of the UK, with fantastic climbs in amazing scenery, and we were all looking forward to getting some more routes ticked. Unfortunately, the weather had other ideas, and relegated us to hill-walking on the Saturday (Sail Mhor by some, Beinn Ghobhlach by others). A bar meal in the nearby hotel occupied Saturday evening, with much good food and ale consumed. A large contingent of local musicians kept us, plus the ubiquitous coach-load of enthusiastic Dutch tourists, well entertained. Sunday also dawned wet, some pottered gently home, others stayed put, content in the knowledge that they had the whole week ahead in the Highlands, with a big ridge of high pressure forecast. Many thanks to all those who attended and made it enjoyable despite the weather, we will hope for better next year.
