DescriptionBearnais Bothy in 1978 - geograph.org.uk - 1766831.jpg
English: Bearnais Bothy in 1978 A good spot from which to explore the remoter hills between Glen Carron and Loch Monar. The bothy was restored in the early 1970's as a memorial to Eric Beard, a well-known character in the outdoor world with many long walks, runs and climbs accomplished. He was killed in a road accident, aged 38. A plaque in the bothy reads:
Bearnais Bothy
Restored with money
provided by friends of
Eric Beard 1931 1969
Known to all as
Beardie
On my visit in 1978 there were several well-known names in the bothy visitors' book including Nat Allen (Rock & Ice Club), Chris Brasher, Hamish Brown, John Hinde. Also a French couple in July 1977 touring on horseback from Newtonmore with 3 ponies and a 6-month-old baby!
