My research on these glens suggests it's land rover tracks for the most part. I'll try and post on here when I get to Fort William at the weekend before you go, if there is anything really crappy here!

Put one Stu in,
Take one Stu out,
Put a Stu in again,
Then cycle roundabout,
Oh,
Do the biking bivi,
Do the biking bivi,
Do the biking bivi,
That's what it's all about.

Any better than "hard house jungle hardcore dance mix" Stu? We could sing it round the campfire ;)

I believe the worst bit is the end of Glen Kinglass up to Loch Dochard, I read somewhere the path fades a bit in parts but any info is definatley appreciated. I think something called "The McMoab Slab" is up this way to.

Just to add to the going/not going discussions, I'm not going to be able to make the trip now. This would be my fourth trip away this year, and when I told the missus I was going on the same day she had to rescue me on the WRT, it didn't go down well :?

Sounds like a plan, beer o'clock in the hotel bar. I'll have 'em on the bar, what's yours?

Hi Gari, will I meet you in the hotel bar or at the bivi site? Also a little more info. The hotel does breakfast from 8 so I plan to have breakfast there tues morning to set me up for the day. I am hoping to bivi near the mouth end of Loch Etive, maybe OS 940377 Dubh Loch Beag or there abouts, this means we can get the A85 out of the way first thing on wednesday and pick up breakfast/supplies if needed at Connel or Taynuilt. Does that sound OK to you?
