The shave should be not much less luxurious, the views tremendous and the buzz worth doin it for:tu. I've got a couple of bothy trips lined up before christmas with mates - it is always a hoot. Long day walks, a fair deal of lubrication and plenty of bon hommie - people need to connect with each other and non human nature as often as possible in these settings. If you've not done it then you've never really lived - if you have done it and hated it then you did it wrong ;)
