What's New?

  Ecological Field Survey of Kinlochetive 8th-9th June 2005.

On quite possibly the sunniest weekend he has experienced in Glen Etive, Rhyddian escorted Dr Joe Hope and Clare Carpenter of Creating Connections to survey the bothy and surrounds...

One of those linear features.                          One of the easier soil profiling moments.

Mapping took place using a Garmin handheld GPS system and a scale map of vegetation type, point and linear features surrounding the bothy has been created using ARCView.  

From this baseline data, and the creative facilitation skills of Clare Carpenter, volunteers, participants and staff members old and new will help to create a vision of the bothy and surrounds for the next 50 years.
