Sun 20th June - Day 65, Chalybeate Springs to Westerdale (19 miles)
Looking NE along Glen More Burn |
A better day with some blue sky but I still set off in waterproofs. The path was fairly easy to identify but doesn't look as though it is used. After 2 hours I reached the track.
The showers gradually ceased & just before lunch I took my overtrousers off, it has been 3 days since my legs have been exposed, but it was still cold.
River Thurso at Westerdale |
The track joined the road just past Loch More, it's all road now from here to the end.
Having a daughter who lives in Scrabster is handy & Fiona picked me up just past Westerdale after 20 miles.
With only 25 miles to go I'll do 22 miles tomorrow & walk the last 3 with Sandra on Tuesday morning to finish in time to catch the 10:30 ferry from John o' Groats to Burwick.
1152 miles completed.
