Alright was wondering if anyone would be wanting to head over to the west coast on Saturday. Was wanting to go over and do the etive and its tribs if there was enough time in one day. Thought about leaving early to get a good day of it.
If anyone is interested let me know by posting on here.

I'm up for paddling the Etive, not paddled it in ages.
I'll definatly be going if I sell my boat tomorrow otherwise I will have to wait & see.
Early start, from experiance you'd want to plan on leaving Dundee by 8am at the latest.

I'm up for heading across too. I was thinking about staying over in Fort Bill on Saturday night and watch the paddle porn at the Fort William Film Festival. Any of you interested in that?

Yeah was thinking of meeting about half seven to leave at eight.
Not sure if I will stay for the film fest. Got a lot of other stuff to get done at the moment.

Oka I have about seven or eight people interested in going. I need to know who exactly wants to go so I can arrange the number of cars we need befor hand.
I will take my car. So I could do with a voluntere of another. Was thinking of getting the buss if there where going to be more than two car lots and I could get a driver.
Any thoughts?

So, what's the plan then for this weekend?

The plan
We will be meeting at the store at half seven to get an early start. Then heading over to the etive to run that. Then depending on the time and how cold it is thought we could go do one of the tribs.
I tried to get a bus but there are none left. So we will have to take cars.
So far the people I have that are definetly going are
1-Me 2-Kirst 3-Scott 4-Lyns 5-Roddy 6-Neary 7-Tampon
I also have a few people that have not confirmed if they want to go. At the moment we have enough people to fill two cars.
If otheres get in touch soon I was going to find another car to go.
I have Roddy and my car going so far.
Rich are you able to drive or you going over and staying for the weekend?

I've been looking at the water levels & the weather. All the water level seem to be falling at the moment, but the Etive can be paddled at any level. The weather seems to be fine over on the west just now & it looks like it might be a bit overcast on Sat. Looks like it might be a good weekend! ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png)

The definite plan is the people in my above post are going with Roddy and me driving. We are meeting at the store at 7-30am.
Have all your stuff with you at the store as we will not have time to go get stuff from houses.
The plan is to run the etive then do one of its tribs. If there is no water in them we shall do the etive again.
We want to keep the fannyin about to a minimal.
