Why does “Scotland is still in the UK…for now” sound like a thinly veiled threat that Dave is going to single-handedly remove British control from Scotland.
Just another problem to solve. About font 8B
Prying the two countries apart using sheer finger strength.
British control... that about explains the situation
Yes, in my next vlog episode I’m going to roll all the boulders I’ve found to the English border to make a giant wall and leave all the best projects on them facing north.
@@climbermacleod AWESOME !!!
That was great. Enjoy seeing your process of scouting and cleaning new boulder problems.
Seeing the actual joy in the mans face over finding an overhanging bit of rock is awesome.
A man and his work...always worth watching.
That 7B looks rad.
I've spent a summer looking for new lines, without much success. Often if you find a bloc it's hidden in the boreal forest beyond a tedious approach with problems consisting of 2 moves haha.
Hope to come across one by just looking out the car window someday.
Yes scouting for new stuff is so random. I've done loads missioning and finding stuff I would not even bother to take my shoes out for. And then other times just finding really nice stuff just next to a popular path.
So cool! There should be a "Boulder Hunt" series :)
Loved it. On the same theme, I remember seeing Paul Pritchard say at a lecture that we hadn't done one-quarter of the routes available in the UK yet.
awww yes another dave video
Got goosebumps when he sent it. Just looks like such good craic. Aways great vids Dave!
This video made me soo happy! good vibe with the music and your climbing. Keep inspiring!
Nice funky dub back in tune
I can’t imagine how satisfying this process must be!
Scotland is such a beautiful place. I'd love to have mountains in my backyard. Alas - there is nothing like that in Denmark.
Very cool, looked fun. There's still new problems to be found! Did a couple of nice (easy) ones in North Wales this summer on a block I'd spotted years ago and finally walked back to and cleaned, so satisfying.
Love to see the whole process
I'd love to see more of this kinda stuff!
Santa is good to Dave! Since most of what I do is new routes, love this video.
Brilliant video, love seeing the process of finding and cleaning new boulders. Cool lines also!
Enjoyed that a lot!
Do you need to have a permission from the land owner to clean boulders or trad routes in the UK? Cool video. Your the enthusiasm is so contagious!
Great video. I should really drive up there more often. A couple of spring trips on the cards. Anyway, very cool boulders. Great work.
Awesome video Dave! Always great to see what you're upto.
Love the psych for some new boulderproblems! :D
This is such a great video. Thoroughly enjoyed that!
Top drawer material as always Dave! Just super...
Such a good mood!
great video mate! cant wait to see the other lines
Off topic but I found this very interesting and kinda funny:
I just read that Scotland is rising (3mm/year), because of past glacier loss (~10000 years ago) , while England is sinking (2mm/year). :D
(Source: Mark Maslin - Climate Change - A Very Short Introduction / Oxford University Press ... great book!)
Oh ... and great lines and video as always!! Scotland is definitely on my bucket list and you are the reason for it.
Love it Dave! Looking forward to a follow up.
Great to see the whole process, love it! More of that please :)
Thanks Dave, love this. It really taps into the essence of what's so special about this thing we do. Would also love to know what's behind the names you give your F.As?
Always amazing quality videos, always a please to watch.
Love it! Can't wait for more!
Amazing
Amazing content, as always. Thank you.
Great video! Really enjoyed it.
Dave is looking very happy and chill! My favourite videos are when Dave is focused on adventure and discovery!
I love seeing the process of creating new lines. Just one question. We are often told not to use wire brushes on rock. Are there exceptions to this rule?
It's not a rule. But I would avoid on soft rock.
@@climbermacleod Point taken. Many thanks.
Biggest grin from cleaning a piece of rock in the highlands. What else does a man need! It’s all about the simple things
Love it!!
I love Scotland!!!
Nice ! Do you ever do slab problems?
Dave- what temperature do you typically consider too cold for bouldering?
Depends on wind and sun really. But in shade below minus 5 is maybe a bit hard going. In sunshine I don’t think I’ve ever come across temps too cold.
How do you come up with a name for so many boulders so fast?? ;-)
I absolutely love this video! I can relate so much about the exciting of finding a new boulder and trying to figure out the lines
Imagine just wandering up to a new boulder and boshing out a 7B first go. Haha, brilliant.
That looked proper fun 👏🏻💪🏻🧗🏻♂️🏴🔥
Hahahahha outstanding thumbnail
Love these videos!
Those lines look great!
Sweet 🤘
I just watched a video with JSeigrist quoting Caldwell saying, forget the weather, just go climbing. 9 times outta 10, it'll work out! Seems like it kinda sums up Scottish climbing!
Does anyone else get as excited about a wee rock and some new routes as you Dave? Great film showing what you can do in the great outdoors that is Scotland. Enjoy this new project.
I love the recent influx of videos on this channel! They are all such a joy to watch and keep me psyched for training during the winter :)
Those routes looks pretty great! Very jealous.
That put a big smile on my face 😊
My favourite type of video!
Super radical cool!!!
Looking for overhangs with binoculars xD thats psyched attitude xD
5:06 that poor piece of grass xD
What was the area keen to visit not too far from me
My dream is to develop a new boulder, looks like I need to come to Scotland! Failing that I find going to new areas without a guide and just making up logical problems gives me a sense of discovery and excitement
