The Long and Winding Road


Since starting this project in July 2007, we have covered over 800 miles of tributaries and rivers. Up to this point, we have been counting the miles walked & surveyed. Now we are counting the miles to go, and suddenly, the end seems to be within sight, and we will be putting in a big push this next few weeks.
This project has indeed been a long and winding road, with lots of highs and a few lows, and physically and mentally very, very tiring. However, the dynamic it has created has been very positive and we look forward to building on this first survey phase.
The road here is following the Cononish up to Ben Lui, the very source of the River Tay. We should have photos from there in due course.
There are about 80 photos and videos in this section. Do have a good look through them, imcluding those put up yesterday, to get a feel for a typical survey day in Strathfillan.
