Spyke successfully completed a massive day today, taking in the 10 Munros running along the northern side of Glen Nevis. Many of these hills will still be covered in snow... Ben Nevis, Carn Mor Dearg, Aonach Mor, Aonach Beag, Sgurr Choinnich Mor, Stob Coire an Laoigh, Stob Choire Claurigh, Stob Ban, Stob a'Choire Mheadhoin and Stob Coire Easain.
Spyke reached Fersit at 8.15pm this evening, and is staying at the Tulloch Station Lodge tonight.

Nice One Stephen, forget about Gulvain, it will be easily picked up in the weeks to come. Day Two and already you are two hills in front of what I did - the GlenFin 2 eluded me on day 1, never mind the Gul. Keep plodding on, and get through the next big days - I can't promise any enjoyment but the nutter they call Manny Gorman may join you in his own backyard, around Laggan et al...(Honest most Westies are normal (ish).
One day at a time, as the song goes...
Hi Spyke - you don't know me and I don't know you but I'll certainly be following your progress with interest as will many others who don't post comments. A very impressive start, good luck with the rest of the trip, enjoy the good days and keep slogging it out when the going gets tough.
Well done Spyke, the other McEwans and myself wish you well and will be following your progress daily. Nice to see that you actually started..... on time! - virtually unheard of in all of the 15 odd years I've known you ;-).
Spyke,Good to see you underway & that the paddle went smoothly.Though with Tony Hammock looking after you you were always going to be in safe hands.
Don`t forget to have the support team keep us up to date with any changes in rote/schedule so we know where to join you.And if any gaps in the support appear let me know 7I`ll see if I can get up to cover.

Enjoying following your progress on the blog. Keep up the good work and I hope to see you in Torridon.
This sounds a great challenge and I look forward to following your progress.
All the best Spyke
Im up in Skye when you are scheduled to be their, I will keep my eyes open for you around about Blaven. The best of luck mate,you will get the result you are after
Wow that is a big day. I did the Ramsay round last year and know how tiring the leg over the same hills is. Respect. Keep up the good work. good luck.
Good luck Spyke. It took me 10 years and that was without all the cycling and paddling. You're obviously superfit already but the one time I tried doing an intensive burst I got shin splints after 10 continuous days and had to sit on a Greek beach for a few weeks to recuperate!
