Despite the fact that I had gone without sleep for about 42 hours during the previous two days, owing to my crazy plan of travelling overnight from Worthing to London, I was still up early on this, the first day of my trip to Crianlarich. It was my first proper walking holiday in Scotland for five years, and I was greeted by blue skies outside when I looked out the window of the Inverardran B&B where I was booked in for the first two nights.
