Cairngorms, mid June?

Post by restlessshawn »

Shouldn't be too midgey should it? I know there will be some but don't want to be eaten alive.

Don't fancy July/August because of midges, then stalking in September, I am away in October and it's too cold by November and days too short.

Shaun, my trip last year was late June and i didnt have any issues with Midges.

As with anything its a case of picking the right spot away from anywhere damp and a slight breaze will keep them away

Cheers sounds like a goer if the weather plays nicely

Need to look at maps

Yetiman, I'm just hoping to go on a short trip after work on a Friday, I think a longer trip will have to wait till next spring maybe
