    I honestly don't know how you're a) not a tv / radio celebrity. b) a 10m+ RUclipsr... your videos are well.. captivating for want of a better word. Your voice, the production.. everything makes me feel less anxious. Scotland's Mountains is quite literally therapy for me. Thank you, thank you!

      I agree, imagine what Murray could do with a TV budget. Well let's all do our best by sharing following and liking, subscribing etc. to get Murray those 10m followers, he brings us joy and deserves to be up there with the YT greats 😀

      Most of TV celebs are part of the club and not that talented and would find it too much work and effort to produce anything near to the level of Murray or many RUclipsrs.

    Lovely to see the meteor shower, the first one was the biggest I've ever seen.. You were brave to walk through the flying ants... we came across them on a hot day on dartmoor years ago, they were everywhere and we had to stop the walk and go back to the car.

What a stunning wild Camp this was, you are quite right,couldn't have got any better (well perhaps if they had had scotch eggs in stock 😆👍).

    What a magnificent view! In 1994 I was on holiday in Milton Morenish with my (ex)husband and our 4 young children (6-13 yrs). We had a marvellous time. The weather was great and we tried to climb Ben Lawers but only my ex and oldest son (12) made it to the top, the others tired halway so we went back down. But it made such an impression on all of us and luckily the partners of my children are also fond of Scotland and they all can't wait to go there some time in the near future. Thanks Murray for this beautiful video!

    Fantastic as usual, I'm sure I've mentioned it before on previous videos but the fact you really enjoy what you do really shows through. As soon as I get a notification you have a new video up I'm all over it like a cheap suit. Like Dave Outdoors Scotland and MCM outdoors time and again you show that a well planned trip misses nothing when compared to the adrenaline junkies. Why you don't have more subscribers is a mystery....(Sorry for inadvertent plugs to other channels)

    We've found a flask of boiling water keeps hot enough for about 8 or 9 hours. Nick a few coffee packets next time you're in a hotel etc and you're sorted.

    • @valeriar6671
      @valeriar6671 Год назад +1

      I agree with bringing a flask of hot boiling water as a substitute for a stove on occasions - ideal for warm days and nights when a hot meal is not really needed and the water stays hot enough for a couple of brews (and some instant porridge).

    • @ScotlandsMountains
      @ScotlandsMountains  Год назад

      good idea - must remember that :) might try it out - would save the weight of the stove but add the weight of the thermos flask I suppose :)

  • @erinmcgrathejm4985
    @erinmcgrathejm4985 Год назад +1

    If not coffee sachets, maybe keep some candied coffee beans (the beans with a little coating around them) light and easy to pack, no water needed!
    So beautiful up there, Murray. Glad the only beasties you had to contend with on the mountaintop had curly, white coats and deep, scratchy voices! 🤣

    Hey mate, have you ever tried a Thermacell for the midges?
    All I can say is DO IT!
    Get the version that runs on the normal camping gas cylinders. Once you use it, you will never go without one.
    Start it up when you first stop to set up camp and by the time your tent is pitched there will be no more midges.
