Did this last Thursday 14/07/22. Should have checked your video first as I did exactly what you did at the beginning of the climb😀! Did eventually meet up with the path further on. Got it right on the way back though!
Wonder how many have made the wee error? Very good wee day out this Munro and the path is actually quite good when you look at it. Hoping to get the last Munro (Carn Dearg) up there bagged soon. Did you get clearer views than i did?
@@MUNROSnCORBETTS I was lucky. Considering I drove through a couple of rain showers on the way up the A9 and some of the hills around Drumochter had their heads in the clouds, I got it clear and dry (if a bit windy) all the way up and down, so the views were not too bad at all.
Well Peter a day of changing weather, you could almost smell the wilderness My only encounter with an Eagle was in Alaska, we were on the train up the Whitehorse pass from Scagway with a load of other BLOODY tourist's. It's the Somerset level for me this week. Regards Magnus
Bloody tourists ha ha! I know what you mean Magnus! Aye its a wild place alright, This is one of the ignored Munros i think, Pity as its a great walk. Weather was roasting, I forgot my suncream(again) and was red as a tomato when i got home! Hope all is well done Somerset, peter.
I climbed this one a couple of years ago. It was after a period of wet weather, and the lower approach was boggy and muddy!. Still it was a good day out, You video brought back some memories. Thanks.
Thank you Paul, I can imagine at how boggy it is there in wet conditions. Even in these recent dry days i still had to navigate through wee muddy areas. And you are correct it is a great walk, Reminds me of Meall Chuaich on the other side of the A9 near Dalwhinnie. Thanks for taking time to watch and comment, peter.
Great vid with good tips on the waypoints to keep us right. Really in awe of your steady hand when zooming in to film the birds. It's alot harder than you make it look! Now subscribed to you so look forward to going through more of your vids for our ongoing munro bagging. Thanks
Thank you very much! Yes i do my best but i do get lost time to time and fall on my ......ahem also ha ha! Yes a very steady hand is needed when filming birds the first eagle was away in the far distance and the second was more or less on top of me i was very lucky that day to see it close up :) Take care and stay safe, peter :)
Mouthwatering views, grrrr we miss Scotland ! Since the last 10 yrs we visit Scotland, what great & lovely people ! Waaw, Golden Eagle above your head (Aquila chrysaetos). The first raptor in the beginning of your was a Buzzard. Mant greetings from Antwerpen, Flanders, Belgium. Take care !
@@MUNROSnCORBETTS Thank you for your kind respons. Buzzards have smaller wingspan en rounded wings, flaps gently, while the Golden eagle (twice seen north of Drumnadrochit =A833= and the other one was east of Fort Augustus in the Monadliath range) has larger wings and longer fingertips. All the best Peter from Anne-Marie & myself 👍
@@MUNROSnCORBETTS 100 % likewise regarding Christmas ! That’s a good & positive intention to look forward to for yourself, you’re a real Munrobagger 😉. Bye bye !
I thought the views from the top looked pretty good! I like hazy views. And that eagle! I'm not sure if the first bird was an eagle and I'm certainly no expert, but the second bird looked like a big beautiful eagle to me. I admire the way you get your videos uploaded so quickly. I take ages doing mine. I'm just back from a crazy trip camping at Glen Nevis. Did the Ring of Steall on Friday, the Aonachs on Sat and the Easain hills on Sunday. I only filmed one of the days. I'm a wreck today! It was pure greed - I saw three sunny days in a row and just couldn't let them go to waste!
Hi Natalie. Until i switched from crap Virigin Media to Talk Talk super fast fibre my upload speed is great to be honest. This would have took about 6 hours plus to upload, Instead of 23 min, Some hell of a difference! That is some 3 days on the hills, No wonder you are gubbed LOL! But as you say, Cant let great weather go to waste eh? Thanks Natalie :))
Just re watched the bird footage Natalie. Yes the first one looks smaller, Buzzard maybe? Ornithology is a foreign language to me, But i must have read Kes by Barry Hines a million times so thats my limit ha ha!
Looked a great day out Peter. Amazing to meet Cameron I think I must have read his Munro book a 100 times, great to have a natter with him. Stunning footage of the eagle, those barn door wings are something, only seen one close up on Stob a'Choire Mheadhoin and never forgot the sheer size of them. As always enjoyed tagging along bud. Atb. Mick.
Aye it was quite a day Mick, Beautiful eagles flying about and another Munro to my collection. Meeting Cameron topped it all off, He was very much down to earth and his knowledge of hills etc is second to none. It was one of those days :))) Thanks Mick, Hope all is well mate, peter.
The four Munros in The Monadhliath range sadly live in the shadows of the High Cairngorms the other side of the A9. They are wild and bleak but amazing in their own right. Hopefully you might bump into Cameron as he is a legend in the Hillwalking game very down to earth and approachable and his knowledge of Scottish mountains is endless.
Nearly went there last year Pete but had to call it off. I remember it because I wanted to see that double span bridge. You’ve got a fair old steady hand with that camera pal. That eagle looked amazing in flight eh? I’ve abandoned my old digital camera as it’s too heavy and the auto focus is shocking so I keep recording unusable footage. Great vid as usual Pete, good also if you to show people that if you get lost, to take your time, get the map out and find your way again! 😉👍🏼⛰🏴
Hi Douglas, Yeah the eagle in flight was great to watch. Once saw an Osprey take a fish out of water up in the Campsies a few years ago, Wish i had it on film. Such a privilege to see them in action. I think the bridge might be one of Wades roads, Done a bloody good job if it was! Thanks Douglas, All the best mate.
Too warm for tea Derek, In fact too warm for anything LOL! I drank all my water and ginger in my bag, Was going to start draining that burn if it got any hotter :))) Thanks for watching mate, peter.
I made the same mistake as u Peter with the path at the beginning,lol. Was a bit put off with the Windfarm when i reached the summit. Great vid as usual pal.😁👍
Thanks mate, Aye the path is all too inviting rather than a dose of boggy boots lol! Didnt know there was a windfarm there, And it is a spoiler to be honest. But takes nothing away from a wee cracking Munro. Thanks for watching Andy and take care mate.
Always a pleasure to watch Peter and the Eagle was a Brucie bunus mate, Christ it was steep I envy your stamina I really do, when you said at 11.10 right above me I`m thinking that`s a bloody vulture not an Eagle LOL, beautiful views dicky in a tent in high winds though, hope your keeping well mate your lungs sound good anyway, ATB George.
Thanks George, The eagle was amazing to watch. Just a bit of luck to spot them when i did, Always a pleasure to see them going about their business. Lungs are fine George, Bloody feet are killing me though ha ha! Always good to hear from ye George, Take care mate. peter.
This video was saying wildcamp to me.I was thinking that about the summit until I saw the bloody windfarm! Beautiful place to spend a day or two.won't be long till you bag no 100.any ideas where you'd like that to be? Thanks Ken
Me too Ken, Plenty of good space for a tent. Aye the windfarm was a bit of a low point, Stick them out to sea and i dont think many would give a monkeys about them. Yep nearly at the big 100, Some people go to a special Munro for a landmark number and i fully understand why. For me i will just be happy to be out in the first place when the time comes, If i get good views and meet good people then i happy :) Thanks Ken hope all is well ma man!
Lets hope the weather will be on your side then! After much debating,I've decided on the cmd arete route to Ben Nevis for my 1st start.not long started a new job so need to build up some holidays for that.doubt I'll ever get to 100 due to having young kids but for me,it's really something personal and that route just looks so good.
@@kenjohnson1041 Certainly is a great route ken, I loved every step of it and was gutted when i came to the end of the arete. Happy that Carn Mor Dearg will be your first Munro, One of my favourites :)))
About 10 years ago climbed 5 on bein alder group from culra 2 nights bike .and bike to that one camping at dalwinnie 2nights . Glad you got good day very 👍 atb gotta get to hills asap.
Nice one mate ‘ I was in Newtonmore on Tuesday/Wednesday went to Laggan dam then had a walk up to Ardverikie Castle ‘ last time I seen an eagle was on jocks road ‘ take care danny 👍🏻
Cheers Danny, Its a remote but beautiful place to get away. Last eagles i saw that close was at Ben Chonzie near-ish Aberfeldy. Could just sit an watch them all day, Amazing birds! Thanks mate, peter.
Another wild pathless adventure Peter, you got some excellent shots of the eagle mate, wow weather been kind to you recently I see, do you have a projection of how long it will take you to do them all?
Aye it was a bit of a wild boggy one, Like they kind though. Off the beaten track and not to busy, And a wee eagle or two certainly is the icing on the cake. Could just sit an watch them all day, Beautiful things! I am on 93 Munros now Tim, I have gave myself maybe 10 years from now to complete the lot. I am in no rush, Just want to take them all in and enjoy it. Dont see why some go like a steam train and climb them in all wild conditions just for the sake off etc. Best thing is i have still have lots to learn and see, And lots of interesting people to meet on the way. Cant wait for the next 10 years :)))) Thanks Tim & mandy, peter.
@@MUNROSnCORBETTS Well its a noble task mate, one you can share with your family for years to come, and a great guide for other folks to have a look what they are letting themselves in for.
Good vlog, thanks for sharing. Still to do this (and the other 3) so thanks for the tip on the path. We were at Glen Shee Fri-Sat doing the 7 after watching your vlogs on them also 😂.
MUNROSnCORBETTS we hiked the 3 Cairnwell Munro’s Friday then camped a mile or 2 North. Saturday we parked at the south end of the route and walked the road to the start of Glas Maol circuit after watching your vlog on them so thanks for that advice also 👍🏼 Always enjoy your vlogs. 😊
Nice film Peter, you've got a great zoom for the goldie footage. Was the first raptor a buzzard or a juvenile goldie? The second clip was unmistakably a goldie with the fingered wings. 🦅 Must have been good bumping into Cameron. 👍🏼 Cheers Robin
Cheers mate. For me as a guess maybe a younger bird is correct. But i cant really say to be honest, Just glad i had a chance to watch :) Aye it was great to meet him, Very friendly and down to earth i must admit. He is of course very clued up in all things about the Highlands, It was a very interesting conversation. Also noticed he is as fit as a fiddle by the looks of things. Thanks for watching Robin, Take care mate. peter.
Been in a few campervans now, yeah they'd be good for you or a tent bit I know you don't like camping. I love waking up at 3,000ft, hard work carrying 50lb up though. Done Vorlich recently. This looked the opposite of Vorlich, that one straight up. Nice shot of Eagle impossible to get those shots with an action cam lol. How many munros in that range Peter?
Aye am no a big fan of camping but i will need to work on it Eddie. There are four Munros there Eddie, In fact one of them is the near miss with you and Wilco(Carn Dearg). This Munro is a bit of a distance from the other three, Might give them a go later on but its an epic long day or an overnighter on the plateau maybe. What Vorlich were you up? Loch Earn or Lomond?
@@MUNROSnCORBETTS I remember that.... I would think you could do the other 3 in one long day. The way we went was possibly long than the ridge walk! Yeah hit the crossbar with munro lol.
@@MUNROSnCORBETTS Billy did that ridge 3 munro hike while me and Wilco walked to that munro. I'm willing to bet the walking on the ridge is easier than the rough stuff we went through.Long walk either way.
Those were some cracking clips of the birds Peter! Was that a golden eagle? Thanks for the path tip, i would have done the same haha. Thanks for another great vid! Cheers! Kris.
Think it was Kris, But not really sure. Mick/Blamhof(see below) He is the man to ask and he seems sure that they were. Ive seen a few in my time, But thats the best footage i have ever had. Makes a day out Munro bagging a wee bit more special when you see things like that. Take care Kris, And thanks for watching mate.
Though having watched both birds again second is definitely a Golden Eagle but first might be a Buzzard wings are slightly different, first has less fronds ?
