They may have had to sleep an extra night in a tent, carry an extra 24 hour's food supply, and walk an extra 15km, but they finished a darn sight happier than last week!
Lessons learned from last week made a serious difference (like packing ski gloves to stop your hands getting cold and wet), which is probably why they ask them to do a practice in the first place. The warmer, if not dryer, weather most definitely helped, and the stunning scenery over the eastern Cairngorms helped too.
The 3.5 hour round trip to Tarfside was nowhere near as fun for me as popping up to Chapel, but hey ho.
So... ready now for three nights and four days camping twice in March?!?
