[#3995528]

Will I die?
The weather is too nice to stay at home tinkering with the car, so I'm just about to head out. How easy is it to get lost?
I've been out maybe 2 or 3 times in the past.
Thinking up to Bonaly, Torduff, Clubbiedean, Glencorse, Loganlee, Threepmuir/Harlaw and then back to Torduff.

Nah, you'll be fine. That route is signposted all the way round. The main junctions in the Pentlands all have signposts and your route is probably about the best for soggy ground conditions (I assume there will still be some soggy patches up there).

It's still going to be very, very wet.

Aye, it was a tad soggy yesterday. I went for a wee spin up there but I only had an hour so just managed a tiny loop from Bonaly carpark.

Right. If I'm not back in 4 hours, just wait longer.

Back, and it was quite decent actually. Only boggy bits were near the top of the run down from Maiden's Cleugh to Glencorse, and then the bottom of the climb from Threepmuir up to Harlaw. Rest was pretty dry indeed.
