LAMM 2011

11th and 12th June 2011

Another LAMM has come and gone and what a great weekend it was. Probably the best area I have done and a superb mid camp. I am not going into detail about the navigation and control sites as this year all were good and easily located if you were in the correct place. Not always the case in past years. We climbed 3 Munro's each with a control on the summit, a bit unusual for the B course. But that was the problem. I wasn't climbing well and it cost us time. Some good route choices made up for this somewhat but a bit of dithering also cost us a couple of places. I think 5 or 6 minutes covered 5 places in the end. Lesson learned, make good choices and keep going. You never know what other teams are doing and they are probably making as many errors as you. So 15th in the end but it could have been better. Thanks to my patient partner. Great weather, good routes and fine company. What more can you ask for?
