Eriboll 4x4 camp November

Hi all spoke to Hughie today and he confirmed the next Eriboll trip is on fri 13th & sat 14th of November than home on the Sunday can't wait to go

We will meet at Skiach Services at 6pm, so a dark run up !! River crossings at night.......

You will need food, bedding, fuel, and booze. Oh, and a chair - if not, you are on the floor.

We will be exploring and beach driving, as well as some off roading on the famous Eriboll site - beware of the BIG hill !

As those who have been before, there is nothing but an empty bothy. It is dry and has a fireplace, but that is it. If you think you might need it, bring it There is NO bog - bring a spade or don't eat.

Please call or email me at info@portalrover.co.uk to book a place.

The cost of the camp/bothy is now £30 per vehicle with a max of 2 persons per truck.

Good stuff, looking forward to it already! Maybe I'll not drink as much this time...

Good - does that mean you are going to share it !

Would love to make it up for this,i'll be on call though Oh and i'm still looking for a road legal 4x4.

Just out of interest,what are the minimal requirements as far as truck spec goes for this trip.? Mud Tyres? 31/32"??

Cheers

Crackin vid Fraggle,make me even more determined to make this trip in the future. Just off to see if theres any more on youtube.
Cheers.

God help us all if it snows, remember to take your sleeping bag in the back of the truck just in case you get stuck out there! Alternatively; a bottle of Balvenie will ensure that you'll be towed out and get back to the heat of the bothy! Will see you all there, looking forward to a crackin weekend no matter what the weather!

Hi captain chaos welcome to the forum sleeping bags bought just waiting to be tested

Not long now ! Stock up with food, booze and coal, and off we go. As the Capt. says, make sure you have a good bag Either to cuddle up to, or to sleep in Low tide is at mid-day, so that should work well for us.
See you at Skiach - providing I don't break any propshafts this time !
