Don’t Bothy Me (28th July 2016)

Thursday 28th July 2016

Up early, walked to Oykel Bridge. Continued on forest track. Stopped at “School House” bothy for lunch – yogurt, nuts, dried fruit, cheese, crisps.

Continued on, fording a stream (only knee deep) and stopped at Knockdamph bothy. It was cold so I got in sleeping bag, and shortly fell asleep – must have had almost 12 hours.

The bothy was spacious, but damp. It had two fireplaces, but no wood nearby.

Distance: 15.3 miles [view on map]

Spending: £0

Mood: 😐 -> 🙂

Looking back over Sutherland (“Southern land” – it was south to the Norwegian Vikings!)
