Have just put a brief report on the Challenge so far on the main TGO site: Challenge story

Quite amusing to see 3 challengers using the SPoT device have crossed Lochness from Drumnadrochit. Anyone know if you can get a boat across here or is Nessy giving rides?

Hi Ian,
A man with a boat Gordon if I remember, who usually gives nessie rides, provides a regular ferry across for the Challenge days. I would guess a third of the challengers get across this way. Last year some people hired canoes to get across and I assume the provider took the conoes back across.

Cheers Derek - that explains it

Bumped into quite a lot of Challengers in Braemar at the weekend - all in good spirits!
