This trip was postponed from last week after an appalling forecast. This week’s forecast was a bit better at F4. Conditions were a bit more benign than expected although on the more exposed sections we saw a solid F3.
We generally found good shelter on the West side of the Loch and behind islands. We worked our way from Luss over to Strathcashell point, stopping there for a leg stretch (and a leg dampening in one case) and a quick stroll around the remains of an iron age fort there.
We did a few island loops on the way to help Simon with his PSK 1000 Islands Challenge.
We had heavy showers, blue skies and rainbows in between, and a possible osprey spot.
