Day one hundred and seventeen - Glen Douchary ro Ullappool

 25th June.

A noisy night as the wind was very strong but it stayed dry and was the same in the morning with high cloud.

The first part of the walk to East Rhiddorroch was across a boggy hillside on a mapped path that didn't exist.
Once down there was an 'interesting' bridge over a little gorge and then a bouncy bridge across the river before getting onto the good track all the way to Ullapool.

Surprisingly for a tourist town at lunchtime I failed to find a reasonable café, the pubs were doing food but with fish and chips at around £19 I went to Tesco's instead!

I was able to dump my rucksack at the Youth Hostel where I'm staying even though check in isn't until 4.30.
Haven't seen one of these for a long time 
Back to Tesco's for the reason for being here, to pick up supplies and buy stuff for a good meal tonight (and breakfast).
It appears that the MOD are using the firing range on Cape Wrath next week but hopefully not at the weekend.


11 miles walked 150 meters ascent.
