55 miles, 20,300 feet

| On Loch Shiel |
A last-minute booking of a cottage at Morar led to a perusal of the map and the possibility of a very pleasing route around Loch Shiel caught my imagination. I couldn't resist and the idea took hold in my imagination: an attractive line over 10 Corbetts (Scottish hills over 2500 feet with a minimum ascent of 500 feet required on all sides) around a fjord-like loch with few road crossings, no out-and-backs and all in what I consider to be the roughest ground in Britain. This promised to be a true adventure requiring resolve, a certain doggedness and commitment. I was not to be disapppointed.
