Given the lack of rain in Lochaber at the moment, we just took delivery of a load of inflatable stand up paddle boards from the guys down at Custard Point in Newquay. These badboys are made of drop stitched hypalon and once they’re inflated to 17psi, are very rigid. We had them down the Awe last week with mixed results (mostly swimming), but they pack up so small that they’ll be coming with us to Nepal in November.

The leg is almost fixed… time to go boating.

After a pretty good start to the summer, I’ve broken my leg. What looked like a pretty bad sprain at first, showed up as a stable fracture of the fibula down next to my ankle. I’ve got another appointment at the fracture clinic next week so hopefully this cast will be off soon. No boating or work until it’s off = bad news.

I’m busy busy busy but with work right now but here’s some photographs from the UK Canyon Guides meet that went down in Ullapool on the 15th of April. A few first descents and a trip down the Dundonnel canyon saw the first meet go off well.

Not really got a solid internet connection at the moment so no real updates. Had an awesome day yesterday on the Etive, Allt a Chaorainn and Allt a Mheuran… with slides and falls a’plenty followed by some food and beer at the Clachaig. This summer’s going to be a good one.
