Had our breakfast this morning after a decent sleep, got the canoe set to go and headed out up the loch. We picked a spot that looked an achievable distance for lunch. It turned out to be a hell of a long way, we think about 5 miles in one go. We were both really struggling by the end, backs hurting like mad and shoulders seized up. Very glad to get out the canoe! Had some soup for lunch and a little fire to cheer ourselves up. Feeling much better we headed back out to find camp early and have a good rest.
Got here about 4pm, covered we think about 6-7 miles. I'm sleeping in the canoe tonight pulled up on the bank under the tarp. Hopefully more comfortable than the ground in the tent. Heading to Laggan tomorrow where we're calling it a day, no point killing ourselves to reach Fort Augustus.
Goodnight!
