Reyt enjoyed that Andy. Makes me want to go back up again tomorrow 😳. The views at the end were worth the whole trip and it’s trips like these that show what you’re made of. Making the best out of whatever comes in your way. Loved it 😍
Lovely in 2020 i walked 18 miles from Loch muick car park up broad cairn, 5 Munro’s circular to Lochnagar and back to the car park, each year I camp above crathie church for a bit of me time with a drink and sunset / sunrise, I did once camp at 3,024 feet near Lochnagar summit in 30mph ish winds lol 😂 many thanks for this reminiscent video.
Great video Andy. Really felt like I was there with you (glad I wasn’t tho 😜). Makes me laugh when people say they love listening to the sound of rain on their tent - aye, allreet 😆. It’s tough filming in those conditions too. Nice one pal 💪👊😎👍
Fantastic video, it's always great to see the different takes on a group trip. Very wet conditions, I've been out in similar in the lakes over the years. Respect for dedicating the videos to Her Majesty, she loved that area. Best wishes to you 👍🇬🇧
What a wonderful place. I look forward to seeing you do the tour again. Hopefully the weather will be nicer then. I 'm enjoying your videos so much, thank you!
Looked like you had a great trip. Scotland makes the Lakes/Dales/Peak seem a bit tame! Muick is pronounced "Mick"! I've been up in that area a few times ...one Winter with a mate we camped at the Dubh Loch under Broad Cairn in terrific winds. We used ice axes and sections of trekking poles to hold the Ultra Quaser down. The wind was picking ice up off the loch and throwing them round the tent! Really enjoyed your video Cheers Alistair 👍
Lousy weather Andy, but just goes to show you're no fair weather camper...great to see you and Paul out and about again. Lovely tribute to her Majesty, may she R.I.P💖
A superb video. Very reminiscent of my last outing under canvas. Five days hiking in the Peak district in torrential conditions.... (for which we were comparatively very poorly equipped). It's taken a litte while to even consider giving it another try. Fifty years and counting! The smiles on your faces may yet persuade me. Great stuff. HRM loved the higlands too. May she rest in peace. D
Us LOT did enjoy it a Lot I'm sure ! typical Scottish weather , is what it is though , lovely tribute, to her majesty who loved the highlands, thanks for sharing.
What a trip mate, proper character building weather that 😂 looked tough tough going in that rain… glad you all got rewarded at the end there with some views. What a stunning place Scotland is Andy. Brilliant vlog thanks for sharing pal ATB Dan
I really enjoyed that big time Andy so thanks. Best video for a while. It brings to life in a way what it feels like to have immersed yourself wholly in that Scottish hiking experience. Oohh I'll have to look that tent up. Cheers Andy, Dan and Paul.🍻
Great Vid Andy, I live not far from there and have been up and around that area all my life!! Shame about the weather but thats Scotland, Just so you know the Loch is pronounced Loch Mick 🤙.......Next time your up this way give me a shout as I know many stunning places around that area to show you guys and would like to join you if your up for it and the views would which would blow you away of course!!! 😀Keep up with the great vids!!!! 🙌
Great video Andy as usual.I absolutely love the Lakes and Peak District but up there in Cairngorms is just on another level, walk for days and never see a sole....just how I like it. Lovely tribute to Her Majesty at the end too. Thanks for putting this up and look forward to the net un
A stunning 🤩 video yet again Andy, brilliant content I really enjoyed it . I’m going myself at the end of October for 3 days can’t wait. Keep em coming old love ..
Brilliant video Andy. Certainly looked tough conditions to film in. Well done mate really enjoyed that one. The Cairngorms are just brilliant aren't they 👍🏔🏴
Stunning Video, thanks for sharing. Nice tribute to the late Queen. The building that you looked down upon on the shore of Loch Muick appears to be a lodge in its present form built in 1868 by Queen Victoria. Wikipedia says that she called it her ‘Widow’s House’ where she could escape from the world following the death of her husband Albert. All the best, Peter.
Terrific video Andy. Always enjoy an adventure in inclement weather. Adds to the achievement methinks. As for the grouse, I suggest you take a wee drop of the Famous Grouse ( Scotch) with you to keep out the chill. Going to look at Paul's version now. I'm sure it will be equally entertaining. Many thanks. Look forward to seeing you in the snow in Snowdonia!!!!
Hi Andy! Superb watch as always pal 👍🏻 Those damn midges do my head in lol.. some amazing views there when the clouds weren't covering too much 😂 Scotland is one beautiful place indeed!! Good job on hitting some more Monroes too 👏🏻 you gonna try and smash them all now aswell being as though you completed the Wainwright's? 😁💪🏼 Always laugh to myself when you see a toposcope next to a trig showing all the points of interest but you're in the clouds haha. I said it on Instagram but can see it better on here, that new tent looks bang on mate 👌🏻 definitely some great room in there really looking forward to seeing it more as the years advances.... Glad you got a too a little sunset on your first night and some stags!! 😱😃 Was good to see your Rab waterproof jacket performing well and especially with the wind blowing all the water off. I need to get a new one was looking at a Mountain Equipment Tupilak or Lhotse jacket. Both just shy of £400 but ive heard they are on point! Have you ever tried them? Or may look at the Rab ones either you or Paul have. ONLY reason is I've had my Revolution Race one for a while now and has never failed me or let water in. Was on the Lakes with Paul (A Cumbrian Lad) for a good 6 or 7 hours of non stop rain and it soaked through in the end with my base layer being that wet I may aswell not have had it on. Wasn't impressed as it has been great before. Although the rain was relentless and not much wind. Anyway if you can recommend the Rab jacket you use or the ME ones would be very appreciative 🙏🏼 Sorry you didn't have the best views for most of your adventure but glad you got some little glimpses. That second night was a bit of a mad one, saw it on Paul's vid too. Suppose one benefit is at least you put that new tent through some mental conditions! Looks like you all had a great adventure though and thank you very much as always for all of of tremendous effort with sharing it with us!! I know how hard / awkward some of that might have been too thanks as always. Really hope you're good mukka and look forward to the next one 😃😊👍🏻🙏🏼 ATB.... Chris 🤜🏻💚🤛🏻 p.s. love the little touch with memory to HM The Queen at the end 🙏🏼 Especially as she adored Scotland ❤️🏴
cheers chris ayy id love to do more munros but its a hell of a road trip up,annual trip up so we'll see how far i get with them 😉 voyager is ace mate loving using it the space is unreal so livable.that 10 second lul in the clouds to reveal the sunset was unreal & seeing the stags was ace. the rab jacket id on was the goretex version mate so was pauls they performed excellent didnt let a drop in & that was the worst rain ive ever experienced so i can certainly recommend that jacket. all in it was a great trip mate with some tough testing conditions & that storm was mental lol ..tfw mate.
@@AndrewBeavers Haha yeah it is a bit of a mission up there like. I'm off for two weeks after next week and hoping to get upto Scotland then myself if I can and divert to the Lakes on the way back. Hope you get to smash a few more over the years to come 💪🏼💯 It does look like a superb tent for sure. Thanks foe the advice on the Rab jacket, I've been very impressed with everything I've ever had from Rab so just ordered one. The one I was going to get didnt have my size so got the new Rab Latok Extreme GTX for Autumn 2022 🤣🤣 way more than I was expecting to spend and more of a jacket than I'll probably need like lol but thought sod it it'll be worth it and at least I know I'll have a brilliant jacket now with the performance. Gonna try and find some bad weather on purpose now to use it 🤣🤣 Once again absolutely loved it as always. Hope you enjoy the weekend to come or your next days off 😊👍🏻🙏🏼 ATB mukka
Another Cairngorm epic, great film and viewing, it can get pretty grim but sometimes more of an adventure as long as you get breaks from it. Think that storm would have s£it me up though 😬😂 I wish Scotland was closer lol. TFS David 👍 Nice tent by the way 😉
Andy yes it's a lovely area the Lock is as you say loch Muick it's pronounced Mick, just thought I'd let you know, not trying to be clever tha knows. Any way the building as has been mentioned was built by Queen Victoria and it's called Glas alt Sheil , it is used as a bothy, quite popular on the TGO challenge. Great vid well done keep it up.
Love the Voyager when it's pitched but not sure about the inner first pitching. I understand that tents that pitch the inner first tend to be far less flappy and quiet, and that the semi geodesic design will be very stable. Does the inner dry out very quickly if you are forced to pitch in the pouring rain?
tbh gordon i think folk overthink the inner pitch first pitching..never had any bother with it myself tbh..if its raining ill hold off till theres a dry spell to pitch..
@@AndrewBeavers I decided to get a voyager and the pitching actually turns out to be really quick and easy. I think the reality of pitching in heavy rain is that quite a lot of water would get in the tent even if it was an outer first pitch. As you say, in most situations it's possible to wait until the rain stops. I like being able to easily pack the flysheet separately which would be not as easily done with a fly first tent. So far I'm well pleased with the Voyager which is a big step up from my Robens Starlight 2.
Very enjoyable viewing Andy. I traced your route on the map and it looked very interesting. There really is nowhere quite like Scotland....even if the weather is pretty grim at times. I'm probably being a bit unfair on other places but sometimes I feel a bit short-changed when I compare the landscapes of Northern England to there. I just wish it was bloody closer! Tent looks good too....I like the sturdiness of inner first tents. ATB pal. Chris
Are you ticking the munros off now? Thanks Andy I love your videos. Shame about the weather. I love the Scottish mountains, streets ahead of what we have in England. Pity its such a long bloody drive!
The Voyager is a fantastic tent, especially given the price. I have the Superlite version which I finally retired last week, after several hundred nights out the waterproofing has finally given up, but considering its use it’s to be expected. Looking online now to buy a new one!
Another great video I’m sure this has been asked before so apologies, are the chest bottle holders part of your backpack or something you have added? Thanks
Well done Andrew, great video. Some pronunciations for you from North-East Scotland. The parking was spot was GLEN MICK (spelt Glen Muick) and the region is LOCK-NA-GAR (Lochnagar). Well done in surviving the storm. It's been rather wild the past week.
An epic adventure Andy. Shame that the weather wasn’t great but it all adds to the experience. I like the look of your new tent. Looks like there is a lot of space and it stood up to that weather very impressively. Do you fancy experiencing a winter camp on the Cairngorms, or have you already ticked that one off?
Just watched this on Paul's channel and again on yours. Great video - seemed worth the biblical weather. Where abouts was that house surrounded by a mini forest? Looks like a perfect place to live.
Did the same route a few years ago. Did it in the opposite direction to you guys though. We camped on broad cairn it was similar conditions to what you had. Those tents are inner pitch first aren’t they? How was it in Scotland’s glorious summer weather?
Another brilliant video, Andy. Surprised you let the Soulo go but the Terra Nova looks great. Any particular reason for the swap? And how does it compare in the wind?
just wanted a change martin id had the soulo a long time..not had the voyager out in any substantial winds yet but im loving the space inside it has on offer.
Cracking video. I've been up Lochnagar a few times, it's my local munro, it's a shame you didn't get much of the views but that's Scotland for you 😂 For the car park did you have to buy multiple parking tickets i.e. One for each day or do you only have to get one? I was fancying camping in that area but wasn't sure what the procedure is.
Bloody hell andy,you had some rain m8,everytime i here ya accent you remind me of kasper from the film kes, the soulo is a great tent but theres just no space,i sold mine after 2 camps.ive camped with some dickheads and you AINT one of them,enjoyed this cheers
