Ben More phase 3.

The final push!!
We restarted here towards the end of the Covid lockdown, continuous pitching towards the rock band where were to finish.

The finished path.

​Three years after starting the path is completed!

Over 1000m of path, most of it pitched due to the unrelenting gradient and a great deal of side ditching.

This was a physically hard job, working on gradients like this in wet and very muddy conditions, often battered about by wind and constantly trying to hold your balance while carry heavy loads is tough work.

​The technical skills of the team and ability of them to adapt them when required was a credit to them all, as was putting up with the 
atrocious conditions and midges, and, occasionally, the heat and sun!

Continuously pitching up to behind someone else's work and then leap frogging to start the next section, all the while attempting to ration the piles of stone so you or your colleagues don't run out in any of the areas, all the while predicting and dealing with drainage, bedrock, deep peat or water courses is a true skill of only the most experienced of crews.
