She's Gonna Get Ya.....
The Scottish midge is a species of small flying insect, found in upland and lowland areas (fens, bogs and marshes) especially in the North West of Scotland from late spring to late summer. These insects are also found in suitable habitat throughout the United Kingdom, especially on ARRAN.
Female Scottish midges are well known for gathering in clouds and biting humans, and are the smallest flies in Scotland to do so. They are generally regarded as pests. The female midges tend to bite in close proximity to the breeding site (although they have been found up to 1 km away) and near to the ground, and are most active just before sunset. Midges are less active after sunset, as well as with wind speeds of over 6 mph, or humidity below 60-75%.
You have been warned!!!!
This cache is a small clip style box placed out at the start of the woodland section of the North Glenn Sannox walk. You do not have to have a long walk to enjoy all that Arran has to offer. This walk is app. 40 minutes each way. Car parking and Trail Head at GC1H57H- Troll Holl. Then follow the well kept path beside the Glenn. Taking in cache GC4BD9F- Arran Mountain Festival. Then for the more energetic of you, once you leave the woodland, the mountains open up and the cache GC1QW5G- Tyal Aval sits on the ridge line you can see ahead.
