I did a lo of walking and climbing around that area years ago , a great location for a weekend away .

This is the best time of year to be up there , no people no midgies and still some snow on the tops .

i will be heading up lunch time on Friday from Balloch and returning on Sunday, looking forward to playing in the canoe on a new loch, weather permitting, any of the lads that are going up this weekend and havent had a play in an open canadian canoe in go faster green are more than welcome to have a wee play.

P.S If you are going Tam, i will bring that pfd along.

Gaz, do you have a specific bit of Loch Etive in mind for basecamp HQ, I have memory map on the computer so i can have a closer look at the bay you have in mind. I was planning on heading up Friday lunchtime so any info you have on the plan would be helpful.

P.S Thats assuming you have a plan mate.

Where exactly will we be setting up base camp? There's a couple of munroes that look quite tempting towards the top (North East) of the loch if we're going there, if I can get myself up early enough on Saturday lol

Aw man! I'm sorely tempted but it would mean leaving the Boss Lady alone over Valentines weekend and I prefer to keep mine in the wee bag they came in!
Have to see if I can bag it somehow!
Any idea what the fishin is like, species, bait etc?
