When Plans Go Awry : Head to The Black Rock
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 май 2024
- When Plan A fell through a number of other factors then led to plans b & c also being binned - however Plan D was not too shabby and a return to the Black Rock or Cliff after a few years following a TV appearance long ago in this spot! Sometimes you don't have to travel far to get epic views and have a grand time....

Love the way you balanced out the Lorne sausage & black pudding with brown bread!!
gotta stay healthy!!lol
Plans may have gone awry but it still looks like you had a great weekend with your wife, dogs and hills. Unassuming as usual, and that's one of reason why it's always a joy to watch your videos 🙂👍
Thank you - was a fine few days in and around Glen Coe - such a wonderful place to spend some time :)
Thanks for watching
Murray
I remember watching watching the program and you appearing on it, my mrs said I was sad because I was excited when you popped up on screen 😂
😂😂👍
Brilliant yet again ❤🏴❤
Another great adventure Murray.
I would definitely love to do that walk one day with you Murray.
Fantastic view's of the Buachaille.
Great image's.

Another great video Murray.
The views were spectacular.
Well done on the climb, nice to have your dog with you for company.

Away to watch Rays video shortly :)
Thanks Murray great wee video. Lexi is a tough wee scoot, so cute. The glen is always calling me great place for sure. I see the two straps on your knees, hope yourecnot having probs again. Sorry to hear Gerry's got a sore knee. You guys need your knees......Alioban
Hi Aliobhan - always nice having Lexie along - she loves the mountains :) knees ok but the strapping goes on when two consecutive days are had to help them out :) fingers crossed they stay ok !!
Great viewpoint from that wee hill. 😎Had this playing on the TV as I popped into the kitchen for a moment. Jeez what a racket. 🙉 Our 2 rescues barking away at your 2. We cannae watch anything with animals on TV 🙄😂
haha - brilliant - both mine rescues too and one of them loves when other dogs are on the tele!! I should make a video of that !!lol
Murry, another lovely video. A good mix of hills, and a bit of relaxing time. Nice to see the wee dugs and the other half enjoying the beautiful landscapes. Some great shots and photos over the hills.
As you say it's always worth have alternatives.
Thanks again.
Thanks - had a lot of fun on this weekend - Glen Coe is a grand place to spend some time :)
Thanks for watching
You had me at black pudding rolls! lol Are you a fruit pudding man? A roll with bacon and fruit pudding is one of my favourite things....and If I'm feeling particularly dirty, I'll chuck in a Lorne sausage. Anyway, great trip and thanks for sharing your weekend with us. 🙂
Afraid I’m more of a black pudding man but not adverse to some fruit pudding too though - is that one of your five a day Jules ? 😂👍
@@ScotlandsMountains I'm going to say.....yes it is....a bit like Irn Bru....because that's orange in colour...so it must have oranges in it....so it must be part of your 5 a day....right? lol
You’re always on my tele’ Murray 😁👍
😂😂 that’s a scary prospect !! Lol
Found you at last on Grand Tours... Glad they agree with all of us here on your channel - you are a photographer, a wonderful photographer... capturing the essence of the life of Murray Wilkie and always enriching ours. Thank you, lovely man.
Haha - thanks Joan - was actually on Malis podcast last night talking about the photography thingy bits too lol 😂 👍👍🙏🙏
We are watching tonight on YT, was it series 1 episode 4?
@@jeg569 I found it on YT. A channel called Andi J had uploaded it. Grand Tours of Scotlands Lochs Legends of the West (28:50) Not sure Andi J had the season and episode correct but it is the one starring Murray (toward the end of the show). Hope this helps. Greetings from Western Australia.
@@joanhuggett5164 the actual programme.

@@jeg569 oh - not sure - was the first episode of one of the series - not 100% it was series 4 tho 🤔
You can't beat those views. Thanks for sharing and greetings to your family, including the mutts. 😊
Thanks Yvonne - hard to beat the views to Glen Coe for sure - a special place :)

Love the thumby and that shot of you, your wife and the doggos walking off into the sunset 🌄. Sums up what looks to have been a very special weekend away. Plan D looked pretty damn good to us! Hope Gerry is back on form soon, but always nice to see little lexi out in the hills with you too, a pocket sized mountain dog for sure!🐕👍. Thanks for taking us along! Enjoyed as always,
Shell and Pete
Thanks Folks - had fun and always nice to have Lexie with me on the hill :)
Thank you Murray for another wonderful experience. You stepped up a gear with your 2 lovely dogs and the photography is off the scale. Thank you.
thank you - the dogs sometimes smile for the camera , but not very often!!lol

A lovely family weekend. As you say, you don't have to climb the biggest hills to get fabulous views. Plus, always have a backup plan! Your videos are always interesting & entertaining. Thanks for sharing. 👌
🙏
0:05 Re the chairlift, a couple of years ago I gave up on the summit of Meall a' Bhùiridh due to high winds.
Annoyed with my "failure" I returned just 5 days later to complete the climb over MaB to Creise.
I had to have serious debate with myself as to whether taking the chairlift the second time was cheating or merely helping me to get back to where I given up previously. After all I had already walked up on foot.
In the end I couldn't let a chairlift be part of my hike and so trudged up under the lift once more 😅!
More of Leanne, Lexi and Rollo please!! They don't moan as much as you Murray!! 🤣🤣
Haha - just wait for a few weeks - got a REALLY moany video coming!!lol
Thanks for watching Doug

When you mentioned at 15.30 you stopped for something to eat, would that have been, erm, maybe by any chance, a scotch egg? found you on Paul great show and if anyone is searching it - Grand Tours of Scotlands Lochs : S1/E1. Legends of the West. Love the various formats, its refreshing. Cheers bud
Might have been a scotch egg (given the way Kexie is staring into my eyes I reckon definetly a scotch egg !! lol 😂
Another good watch! (And I remember that TV appearance :) )
thank you - a few years ago now - I maybe had a few more hair follicles (although I still have the same gear I wore then now!!lol)

IMDB says series 1 episode 1, September 4th 2017, featuring Murray Wilkie, Photographer 👍🏻
👍
Have been looking forward to your video all day as the follow up to last week. You didn’t disappoint! What a fantastic shot of the Buchaille - made me exclaim aloud. Wonderful, thank you. Loved every minute and must search out the television programme. 👍😊
Thanks Anne - was a nice way to finish the adventure for sure :)

Glad you had several plans to fall back on Murray. Looks like you had a wonderful weekend with stunning sights and special company with your wife and dogs. Look forward to more from you. ATB
Thanks Julie - wee Lexie loves coming along - she always seems to enjoy it (as do I!:))

Creag Dhubh is the “cry” of the Clan MacPherson. My husband went to a Clan gathering many years ago, and a hike up to the summit was one of the activities. So nice you have a little hiking buddy. Cheers, and ATB!
Brilliant - never knew that - always nice having wee Lexie with me - she loves the hikes in the mountains :) 👍👍
Murray, I had to go to my Paul Murton DVDs after seeing this and I've just re-watched Legends of the West on his first series on Scotland's Lochs - and there indeed you are! I'll bet you two got on like a house on fire. 😊
My 6 minutes of fame :) they were a great bunch and I had a great time with Paul and his team :)
Brilliant double header Murray. Cheers 🥂
Wonderful videos of late. Different but equally as inspiring as the big hill days. Jealous of Lorne sausages
Thanks Ian - a couple of slightly different videos - hope you enjoyed them :)
Thanks for watching
Murray
Ugh aye that was me summit camping up there the night before yout headed up for the Fridya nights show . What a show it was. My latest video out, whilst David was in the lakes. Brilliant video as usual Murray. Thanks 🙏🙌
Ah brilliant - watched Daves video the other night - will head over and catch up 👍👍👍
Another fine video Murray!
Nice one Murray lad. Thanks.
🙏
Always entertaining. Thanks Murray.
🙏
🙏
I really liked that video 👍
Good work as always Murray, thanks for sharing.
Nice video showing its best to be flexible and how you can still get a good day out when the main plan goes south.
And another unknown (to me) viewpoint to visit.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Alasdair - Creag Dhubh is well worth a visit - a nice easy hike too if taking chairlift ;) 👌👌👍
@@ScotlandsMountains chairlift? Couldn't do that, I'm too pure... 😂
@@alasdairmacdonald6730 😂😂👍
Lovely trek Murray, just watched your camp with Ray and Jim, great stuff. Cheers 👍
Hoping to have my edit done in next few months ! Lol
Thanks for a great video Murray, helps a lot!
Fab as usual Murray keep up the good work ATB👏👍

Vthat episode with Paul is still on you tube remember it well .me and Wendy cheated and took the ski lift up that mountain but the views were fantastic

@@ScotlandsMountains lots of what we talked about, mixing it up and love the story and again the photography, beautiful! Take care, sithee soon 👍
Just stunning 😍
Hi Murray, plan D was amazing, so could only imagine what views you’d have got from A,B or C.
Lorne sausage and Black pudding sandwich……blooming lovely. 😋😋
All the best mate
Dave 😀⛰🥾🏴
Nothings beats a lorne and black pudding piece - obviously with ketchup though !!
@@ScotlandsMountains No way, not tomato sauce🤢
Thanks 👍

Time goes fast enough these days Murray.. Surely it's the middle of spring? 😊
So can you be dropped off on a Monroe by a helicopter asking for a guy with blue stickers on his knees , the wee little scamper , very nice video , awaiting the box sets
Wonderful
So much beautiful scenery to enjoy.
What is the best time of year to go to the highlands When the midges are not as bad please? If anyone knows can you let me know please.
Hi - probably earlier in the year - April and May are good as midge aren’t as bad 👍
@@ScotlandsMountains thank you
Make a scotland mountains tshirt love the videos
Does taking the chairlift not just make it feel more Alpine.
Ah yes - indeed :) just not alpine huts for a cuppa ☕️ 😂👍
Glen Coe caldera
You've had over 11 million views on RUclips - so I think you're more famous than you realise!!! Probs more views than you got on the BBC!!!
haha - not sure about that - was nice being on the big tele for my 5 minutes of fame though :)
Thanks for watching

Firstttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt
We found you on Grand Tours...
I'm certain there will be some Munro purists along soon to confirm going up the chairlift would be cheating 🤣
brilliant - no comments as of yet - but waiting with baited breath ;) lol
I'm pretty sure you just did even if you tried to disguise it by saying someone else will soon 😂😅 ... nice try but it was you , you are that guy 😂
@@ScotlandsMountainsI once got ticked off by more than one purist on social media for confessing that I’d used an electric bike to cycle out to the foot of the remote Corbett Carn Ban! I think using a chairlift would have given them apoplexy!
More footage of Mrs Wilkie please Murray. Much better to look at than you !!
