So, how did you guys get on? Any photos? If you made it the Fort this weekend you should have found some good stuff to do. Laggan Dam was on 4 pipes today (Sun). Reckon it should still be going Mon / Tues even if there is no more rain.

We made it alright. Had a crackin weekend. started on the Coe and Roy on saturday, great levels. Things dropped off a lot on Sunday so paddled the upper nevis in lowish water after a bit of driving around looking for water. More rain then for monday so rivers were running again, paddled the Kraicinish (probably spelled that wrong) great long run. Two of the lads also got up real early Tuesday to paddle etive on way home. will defo be back up there, great boatin. Havnt the photos yet they all went onto one of the lads labtop. thanks for the info

March 28, 2009 - 07:17 — BoaterGirlHi,
Wicked to hear you had a good time. It's cool when visitors get the conditions here (it's hard to beat but unbelievably, it doesn't always rain in the Fort!?!). What was the tree situation like on the Kiachnisch, I had heard there were still a couple lodged in awkward places?
Be great to see some photos and hope you make it back over sometime.
trees Kiachnisch
April 1, 2009 - 19:41 — eoinThere was one tree of note blocking the small drop at the entrance to the gorge section, its easily seen on approach. We had to portage round it. The rest of the gorge was clear. one very large tree at the top of the large drop just before the old footbridge at the exit of the gorge, but wasnt blocking the line in any way. As for footage a vid was made. enjoy
