In reply to goatee:
Thanks for posting this. I enjoyed reading it.
I walked Shiel Bridge to Ullapool back in 2003, following the old North To The Cape route, and then Shiel Bridge to Glenfinnan a year or so later - so this brought back some happy memories. Got rather gripped coming down the Falls of Glomach path in heavy rain. Got lost trying to find my way out of Attadale Gardens. Fun times.
