Meek Kayak, Loch Maree

10-8-16 Meek

Colin, Erin and Owen met me again, this time for a paddle on Loch Maree. We had a great day paddling around in some very atmospheric conditions.

(Credit for the picture goes to Colin as my waterproof camera had finally taken on a little too much salt water.)

Whitehead Kayak, Loch Shieldaig

5-8-16 Whitehead (3)It was a busy day, so I was meeting Emily, Tim, Elliot and George in the evening near the Shieldaig Lodge Hotel. We hadn’t managed to get out the morning before due to the wind speeds so we managed to fit it in now. Like with the rest of the day the midges found us early on, but soon got left behind on land as we paddled away from them. George took a quick dip early on in the session, I think a piranha to the face was partly to blame! Everyone else stayed dryish, ignoring the rain, till the end when Tim and George managed to go for a swim whilst Emily and Elliot kept their balance.

Murray Paddle, Loch Shieldaig

5-8-16 Murray (21)

Alistair, Debra, Robert and Alex met me for a good session on the water, we started fighting the midges, but soon moved onto the beach to escape them. We had a good session paddling around the loch and playing games. Being in the shelter of the loch meant it was a little midgy on shore, but it meant we got shelter from the breeze meaning we had lovely calm waters to paddle on.

Maclean Carruthers Kayak, Mellon Charles

3-8-16 Maclean (23)

Many folk come up to this are every year on holiday, some come multiple times a year. Eileen Andrew and JJ booked a session with me, they then invited Gordon and Ben along – friends in Edinburgh and all of them regular visitors up here. Ben had been paddling with me before, so knew a few of my games already. We had some very inquisitive seals, swimming nice and close to get a good look at us.
