Hi Stripey. Amazing place, I’ve never been to Scotland and watching your videos really makes me want to go there. The quilt looks good, always thought you’d get drafts from the sides and get cold but I think it’s worth trying as I can imagine it being a lot more comfortable than a sleeping bag which I always use. Thanks for sharing. Serk
Hi Serk 👋, when you ever get the chance I would highly recommend Scotland for a visit 👍. I wasn't sure with the whole quilt idea either and was concerned about the drafts as well tbh - that was also the reason why a chose a draft collar 😎. I had no issues at all as the quilt came with some straps to keep it down onto the isomattress - I am absolutely amazed how great it works - absolutely loving it so far. Thanks a lot for watching mate! ATB Stripey
@@StripeyHatGuy I will surely go Scotland some time. I see, you got that draft collar and straps, sounds great. From what I can tell your quilt can be custom ordered too. Thanks for always replying and honestly giving some good advice from your experience. Look forward to your next video already! ATB Stripey
Another great video Stripey 👌 Awesome spot to pitch the tent with superb views and your food looked nice as well 😋 Good stuff man, all the best Chris 👍
Hi stripey u changed menu from chicken to sausage love it wat absolutely stunning views u gave us fantastical wild camp u never let us done with ure wild camps magical take care friend
Excellent film. You got great weather. We camped at that wee Lochan last August and it was wet and windy all night. Beautiful spot, one of my favourite hills. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks a lot Argyll Diving! AHH is a pity that it was wet and windy, can imagine so that it summer you get eaten alive 😎 Thanks for watching! ATB Stripey
Another stunning location.having some nice weather makes it so much better.i switched to a quilt last year I find them way better than sleeping bags I'm a side/front sleeper the quilt really works for me
Hi Craig 👋 Yeah I am 'converted' as well and that already after one night. Enjoyed my sleep just so much more. Didn't realize or imagine how much better it would fit to my sleep patterns. Said this, for the 4th season I will stick with my sleeping bag but all the other times the advantages are for me personally just in a quilt! Cheers Stripey
Thanks a lot Scott! We thought as well that the Lochan is just the perfect camp spot not only due to the well sheltered location 👍 Thanks a lot for watching! ATB Stripey
Fantastic views and stunning conditions. I've only been up The Brack once and it was abysmal! What a beautiful lochan too! You couldn't ask for a better camp.
Hi James 👋 Was really a great day out and wild camp. The only thing which could have been better was the full moon. Had the whole night the feeling that someone with a torch was staying outside of the tent 😂😂😂 ATB Stripey
Funnily enough I was looking up at The Brack and The Saddle on Saturday. I'd taken a wee drive down Loch Long, as I used to live there. More to get a photo of the mountains rather than walking up them these days. Courgette, definitely not on my menu, more of an onion and tomato man myself.
Wow Stripey, what a location ! Nice shot at 10 sec of the mountain . I like that you say courgette in french like we say here in Québec , and also the " bon appétit " ! I alway's say that a full moon with clear sky brings colder temperature . I never tried a quilt before , let me know later in the season if you find it adequate for most of your hike . Thanks for the video Sylvain 👋
Thanks a lot Sylvain! Was for me as well the first time in a quilt but I feel already 'converted' but as you said time will tell - will definitely give a feedback after I gained enough experience. Wish you all the best for your adventure mate - enjoy and stay safe! ATB Stripey
Hi ThisIsMyLaine 👋 Yeah was kind of steepish starting from the forest for like 2 km but absolutely worth it. Not sure what it is but for me it is something really special to wild camp next to a mountain lochan - probably because I haven't really done it before back in Germany/Austria. Thanks a lot for watching! ATB Stripey
Looks like a great hill as well for the views... probably even better than The Brack!? If you would like to skip some ascent, just behind the loch direction Cnoc Coinnich is a wee path which leads to the bealach - in the video I went there for sunset.
@@StripeyHatGuy there was no clag at the lochan level so I just wandered over to the edge above Ardgarten. Beautiful views. Ps I read that Cnoc Coinnich was a nicer view aswell
Another stunning location for a wild camp Stripey. I went with the quilt as well and absolutely love mine. So much more freedom to move around and I have never been cold. Can you tell me what make is your headtorch and is it good. On the lookout for a new one! Keep the vids coming 👌
Hi Euan, The headtorch is the nitecore NU25. Quite like it, is probably the lightest rechargeable headtorch and when I remember correctly also waterproof with an IP rating. I can definitely recommend it, but I wouldn't use it for complex mountain navigation for that it isn't bright enough in my opinion. Cheers Stripey
@@StripeyHatGuy Nein, ich danke dir! Eifersucht beschreibt nur sehr inadäquat meine Gefühle als ich deine Videos schaue! Meine Schwester, die in Callander wohnt, hat mir von deinem Kanal erzählt und sie und sein Mann sind beiden große Fans. Ich bin in Belgien und obwohl die Ardenne schön sind sie sind aber Kein Alpen oder Highlands (Schottischer Hochland?). Ich freue mich auf deine nächste Tour ich lasse mich inspirieren für die nächsten mahl das ich meine Familie in Schottland besuche. Tschau ✌️
Das freut mich total zu hören William! Im schottischen Hochland (😉) gibt es so viele schöne Ecken - einfach nur unglaublich - hoffentlich ist die ein oder andere Tour für sich dabei. Vielen Dank Stripey
Hi Pete, unfortunately I do not have a scale but I am sure that the tripod/camera/lenses/drone/... are the majority of the weight. Should probably write it down at some point 😉👍 Cheers Stripey
Watching now- beautiful scenery
Thanks Dave, Scotland is such a beautiful country - not difficult to find a scenic spot for a wild camp 😎👍
Thanks for watching!

You made the Arrochar Alps look really inviting. Another smashing video!
Thank you very much catmandubh! ☺️👍
Hey Stripey!
What an incredible camp spot! Great to see the sunshine along with no wind too ☺️
Stay safe mate,

Nice one Stripey 👍 A long time since I climbed the Brack. The Arrochar Alps is the area that first got me into hillwalking. A brilliant place. 👌
Fantastic views and stunning conditions. I've only been up The Brack once and it was abysmal! What a beautiful lochan too! You couldn't ask for a better camp.
Thanks a lot James! 👍

Love the outro shot Stripey! Looks like it was an above average camp. You had me at courgette 😄thanks for sharing. J

@@StripeyHatGuy yes thank you , very kind of you , cheers !
Another fantastic hike and camp Stripey, I really enjoyed it. What amazing views. I’m hoping to get up that way soon 🤞🏼
👍
Thanks a lot Anthony ☺️. It's really a stunning location, hopefully it will work out for you soon 🤞
Thanks

Absolutely gorgeous
Wow that looked stunning! Amazing views all round. Looked a steep walk at times but worth it in the end, I’m guessing! Thanks for sharing ⛰ ⛺ 🌄

What stunning scenery! I was at Sandwood Bay this weekend but I almost wish I was in the Arrocher Alps. Almost. Great video.
Yeah absolutely stunning mate! Sandwood Bay sounds great as well so 😉👍
ATB Stripey
Will certainly do this hill again and wander across to Cnoc Coinnich which was enveloped in clag last year.
Looks like a great hill as well for the views... probably even better than The Brack!?
If you would like to skip some ascent, just behind the loch direction Cnoc Coinnich is a wee path which leads to the bealach - in the video I went there for sunset.
@@StripeyHatGuy there was no clag at the lochan level so I just wandered over to the edge above Ardgarten.
Beautiful views.
Ps I read that Cnoc Coinnich was a nicer view aswell
I really enjoy your videos. I would be really interested if you did a “start hiking” video and what gear to start with etc
Thanks a lot! Will have a think about it 👍
Cracking spot stripey. Sunrise looked great. Been looking at the EE quilt myself. Gordon
Thanks a lot Gordon! Really enjoying the quilt so far. Not the cheapest investment but for me personally definitely worth it 👍

@@StripeyHatGuy good to know. I will probably get the slightly lighter one. Let’s see
Amazing footage! Keep it up mate 👏
Thank you very much Jason, will do my best 👍
great stuff, looked pretty steep, musta been tough with a heavy bag.
Thanks a lot mate! 👍
Be careful and always stay safe💪👍👍
Cool trip my friend
