@@ScottishSummiteer haha brilliant, thats good to know as we always watch your vids. We enjoy watching your adventures and we think you have just the best voiceover voice. Keep doing what your doing and take care out there. Donny & Maxine
Absolutely knackering a night like that. Flappy tents and howling wind means no sleep. Last time it happened to me, I bailed in the morning, headed down for a lift off the wife. Up on the tops was awful and in the Glen was sunny and warm. I'm really enjoying the subjects and quality of your videos. Takes me back to when I was a lad going up the hills with my mates. We are all scattered now so I go solo but I don't get the chance to get home to Scotland for much. Well done.
What a video ahahaha! That was really some adventure for you. Absolutely enjoyed the longer video, you really experienced it all lol good views, weather, chill calmness to then everything going wild. Thanks for taking us along on yet another fun and exciting adventure.
More stunning scenery! Oh, I can just imagine how cold it was at your camp lol. There's nothing like crazy strong winds to wear you down. At least you guys had one day up there, and an adventure shared. It gives some peace of mind knowing you're not alone out there, too. Thanks for sharing.
Next time, could you do a slower panorama view. The scenery was stellar but I couldn't get the entire view. Please enjoy your trips, stop, and have lunch. Life is too short to speed race through it. Love your channel.
Wow! That was the most beautiful walk-in route to - was it Loch nan Eun? Right on the Perthshire - Aberdeenshire boundary, that is! And as your caption says on the second summit... you'll remember those views for a very long time. But, my, it doesn't half get wild up there - and there's not even a fence post to stop it! That's no much fun when you can't sleep and it's all about survival until it gets light enough to escape. You did well though - and you're so philosophical, which is a great quality to possess. Yes - every step we take in life is a learning curve...!
Hi mate, what a magical area, shame the wind was so bad, but you did the right things. Some stunning views from those two Munro’s, and a lovely camp spot. As always thanks for sharing your adventure, all the best, Dave 😀🥾⛰🏴🏕️
Really enjoyed the video...what a beautiful area that would be to photograph. You definitely made the right call in ending your trip early...brutal cold winds... Once again an excellent video. Best wishes and many thanks.
Very well put together - some really excellent landscape shots and i'll definitely not make the same mistake - Essex doesn't have many Munro's though - in fact - none ! Wild and whirling words !
Absolutely amazing shots you got there, fair play to you getting out in that weather. Ever thinking of coming over to Ireland there's definitely some views like that to explore!
Looked like quite an adventure!...isn't it great up there.?..I did Beinn Luthran Mhor a few years back and it was 10 hours out and back from Spittal of Glenshee...the distances are insane...!
Another enjoyable watch, thanks Gregor. It wouldn't be as exciting if it all went too smoothly anyway. It looks as if it's affected your friends ability to walk properly as well, unless he's been on the whiskeys!
Well, I'm sure you grabbed people's attention with that adventure! Winter in Scotland is when outdoor enthusiasts learn lessons. Sometimes, the hard way. At least you have now tested your tent under pretty brutal conditions (good old Vango) and survived a sleepless night relatively unscathed.😨 By contrast, the first day of your trip up Gleann Taitneach (classic case of multiple gaelic spellings!) to Loch nan Eun, loch of the birds, and I can affirm encountering a pair of Whooper Swans resting there, no doubt on their winter return from Iceland. It is a very special place in my memory, a peaceful, high-level loch, a long way from anywhere, ringed by a circle of hills, perfect for a wild camp in good conditions!! The hills around are gentle in their topography but excel in trackless distance and roughness/bogginess, as you learnt in this video!! No worries, the hills will be there to enjoy another day😊.
Great video, with a nice wee narrative. I think that I was out in the Drumochter Munros on your second day and the MWIS *was* warning about the winds even though the BBC wasn't: the BBC weather forecast has been utterly useless since they stopped using the Met Office and saved money by outsourcing to a French company. I love Loch nan Eun, where you camped, although I've seen substantial icebergs floating in it in April! It's great for the three surrounding Munros, but your chosen route must be the hardest route imaginable for An Socach and Carn Bhac! I did the latter in winter from Glen Ey and, like you, I remember the climb up Carn Bhac (across the peat hags by the Allt Carn Bhathaich) as being one of the hardest I I've done, despite it being a wee munro.
Hello Gregor 🙋♂️. Brilliant video - Thanks !! Not getting enough sleep 💤 🛏 due to the challenging weather gives me a sore head 🤯 the following day !! I am convinced it’s something to do with the altitude I am at !! If I find myself in that situation I normally bail as soon as there is light and head back to my campervan. I went through a similar experience as you guys whilst hiking 🥾 in Skye. To be honest with you - when this happens I can’t even be bothered eating anything !! Just get up, pack up - and head back grunting all the way down to my camper. I have even crashed out with my kit on !! and woke up in the middle of the following day still knackered and cold 🥶 in my van !! It’s not a brilliant feeling… BTW - maybe an idea if you are hiking 🥾 with the same dude 🏔 🚶🚶♂️🎒 to think about a set of “Motorola Walkie Talkies” for you both - that way you can both stay in your tents ⛺️ and just communicate as opposed to having to walk to each other’s tents ⛺️ if the weather is against you !! They are cheap and light to carry and another string to your safety back up if ever needed !! Thanks 🙏 Take care and stay safe 🫶✌️ James…..
It just shows how quick the sugar can turn to shit, when you play with Mother Nature I've often wondered if you guys use GPS's on your tramps, like we do in NZ since the technology become readily available? They're an essential bit of kit these days especially when it clags in with fog, or you run out of daylight ..... NZ conditions are a bit different a lot of the time, as in, we are often in heavy bush, with no sky, or land mark views to negotiate by Play safe you mad keen young buggers, and bring on heaps more videos

Thanks for your hard work
Thanks so much. Really helps me with the cost of getting to these amazing places. So really means a lot🙏
Spoken like a true Scotsman “it’s minus 5 up here, it’s absolutely roasting” brilliant mate. Cracking video 👍
Haha thanks mate. Love your videos, watch them all the time. Thanks for the support 🙏

Well done guys. Don't let a bit of adverse weather put you off. Thanks for sharing these great experiences.
I'm so glad that you use your sense and don't place your life in excessive danger.
Thank you for the video 😊!!! Stay safe!!!
Glad you enjoyed it :)

Thanks mate, can’t think of many better ways to spend free time🤝
Just want to say that this is a terrific bit of film making. Your landscape framing is particularly good.
Thanks man. That really means a lot😊
Great video. It is so beautiful to watch all that Scotland has to offer, such determined young boys. Oh and the views are good too.
Yeh the views are incredible. Glad you enjoyed
Epic walk. Thank you.
What a video ahahaha! That was really some adventure for you. Absolutely enjoyed the longer video, you really experienced it all lol good views, weather, chill calmness to then everything going wild. Thanks for taking us along on yet another fun and exciting adventure.
Yeh I’ve been trying to make the videos a bit longer without you guys having to listen to me talk rubbish. But glad you enjoyed😊
@@ScottishSummiteer I personally enjoy everything ahaha clips of you talking, the scenery, the camp setup, etc etc
Shame you had to abandon the second day but safety first and the views on the first day were awesome well worth it , great vid cheers .
100% mate, was a great adventure. Glad you enjoyed it
More stunning scenery! Oh, I can just imagine how cold it was at your camp lol. There's nothing like crazy strong winds to wear you down. At least you guys had one day up there, and an adventure shared. It gives some peace of mind knowing you're not alone out there, too. Thanks for sharing.
Yeh was a great adventure and definitely one to remember
So heartening to see young people doing this instead of wasting their time making stupid tiktok videos..
Haha, instead I’m making stupid RUclips videos 😂😂
Sensible is always best: Enjoy while you can and know when to change plan. Great views and photography.
Lovely your out with your pal xxx

Thanks Dave. Yeh we got lucky with the views on the first day. But back to normal on the second day aha
Really enjoyed the video...what a beautiful area that would be to photograph. You definitely made the right call in ending your trip early...brutal cold winds...
Once again an excellent video. Best wishes and many thanks.
Thanks for the support 🙏
Very well put together - some really excellent landscape shots and i'll definitely not make the same mistake - Essex doesn't have many Munro's though - in fact - none ! Wild and whirling words !
Thanks 🙏
A book i can highly recommend having just read it - Bothy Tales by John D Burns - it's a cracking read !
Absolutely amazing shots you got there, fair play to you getting out in that weather. Ever thinking of coming over to Ireland there's definitely some views like that to explore!
100% will visit Ireland. Would love to do some hiking there at some point. Heard it’s great
Great video glad you returned safely
Looked like quite an adventure!...isn't it great up there.?..I did Beinn Luthran Mhor a few years back and it was 10 hours out and back from Spittal of Glenshee...the distances are insane...!
Yeh it’s insane isn’t it. Just didn’t expect it to take that long haha
That was a toughie 😮. Doing your own route is hard going. Certainly a trip to remember 😅
Yeh it definitely makes it a lot harder. But a great adventure 😊
Another enjoyable watch, thanks Gregor. It wouldn't be as exciting if it all went too smoothly anyway. It looks as if it's affected your friends ability to walk properly as well, unless he's been on the whiskeys!
Haha probably just tired of waiting for me walking back and forth to pick up the camera
Great video as always, stunning part of the country, I forgot how good that glen was. Sensible decision to come back down.
Yeh the glen was amazing. Thanks for the support
Well, I'm sure you grabbed people's attention with that adventure!

Yeh just gives us another reason to go back to the area, so can’t complain😊

Yeh that’s what we thought as-well. Felt unbelievably hard. Worth it for the views though 😊
I love the views from the top of Scottish mountains, it makes you feel so small. Thanks for taking us again this week.
Glad you enjoyed :)
Lovely walk up to the Lochan but that night wind was very 'iffy'!! Thanks for posting, cheers, John.
No worries mate. Glad you enjoyed it
One word, frightening, although the views were great.
Yeh was a bit scary but a great experience 👍
Nice adventure. Thank you for sharing.

James…..
Yeh can be tough camping out in bad weather. Good experience though 👍
That was a breezy one!
Do you have a good recommendation for a trekking tent?
It just shows how quick the sugar can turn to shit, when you play with Mother Nature
I've often wondered if you guys use GPS's on your tramps, like we do in NZ since the technology become readily available?

Play safe you mad keen young buggers, and bring on heaps more videos
Only 2 things in this world impossible to predict is lottery numbers and Scottish weather.
Yeh ur not wrong 😂
