Loch Vaa

The BASOC AGM was held today. Prior to the meeting we had the chance to run on the new 'ROMP' area.

Although I have run at Loch Vaa several times in the past I had forgotten what a truly amazing orienteering area it is - even better for having just a few other people in the forest at the same time. The fast, open and detailed terrain encourages total absorption of the map whilst the poor light and damp conditions enhanced the remote atmosphere of the forest.
