Who needs a map?

The realisation that the maps had been left on the front seat of the bus occurred a few minutes too late for Tom and Ceri, as it became a mere speck in the distance.  However, they're now confidently suggesting that perhaps maps won't be necessary in the summer, after successfully navigating themselves across the correct 4 Munro's! Meanwhile an overenthusiastic Alex was assisting the locals in bridge building, or as he said "preparing the route for the summer"! What started off as a bridge quickly turned into a dam as Alex plunged a planet size rock into the water, soaking himself from head to toe! The rest of the day was spent doing gymnastics in bogs and battling against gale force winds on the summits. After 26km, much wind burn and a very wet Alex, the team were relieved to arrive at tonight’s camping spot, which is next to a Youth Hostel, near Glen Carron.
