    Enjoyed watching that Paul. I did the walk a few weeks ago in the clockwise direction, perfect conditions with amazing views. As you said in another message its definitely a place to return in winter even if it's just back to the Lochan. Look forward to watching ur next adventure.

      Thanks so much Selwyn! I had a hunch that I was going to be clagged in for the first few hours and really wanted to enjoy the lochain. Turned out not to bad in the end. What a great walk eh! The area around the window is very dramatic and that Lochan is amazing. Yeah a winter trip here is on the plan. I think I will wait and do the other 3 munros in the winter too..Cheers again and all the best. Paul

    In a place like Scotland, it's not a surprise that you'd have multiple words to describe the mists. Quite glad we've got you to pronounce all these places for us. Phonics are not followed well in Scotland. Love that you've started to put a point on a map so we can see whereabout you are. You're also getting really good with that new camera. Love the reworks you've done with your intro expositions and graphics. We're getting a good sense of what you're about beyond a string of amazing views.
    Your boss is amazing for giving you the day when you had a good weather window. Paddy was SO up for this one. You were obviously not the only one stoked that you got the day off to head out.
    It was only cloudy because you brought the sun lotion Paul. If you'd left it in the car, you'd have been cooked. After a year in the mountains, I'm convinced that's how this stuff works. Weatherman says one thing, you bring the stuff for it, and he's wrong. you forget something, and he's too right, isn't he? Lovely that it cleared up for you. Those views are FAN-TAS-TIC.
    We were just thinking, another great bit about heading out on a Wednesday, less people out yeah? You are 100% correct. That bench was in the perfect spot. Can't think of a better day off that what you had here. Another stunner Paul!

    • @PAADVENTURES1
      @PAADVENTURES1  3 года назад

      Wow! What a comment JR! Thank you so much...
      The pronunciations are not easy for me either! Everyone you speak to has their own idea of just how it should sound...still you are getting my bestest attempt 😁. I have reverted back to my gopro! The big camera has proved to be a bit cumbersome on longer days so I will keep that for camping or wee walks over the winter.
      Paddy loves these walks...he sleeps for 2 days after though🐕😂.
      I have so many holiday days to take that I will probably be out more Wednesdays upto Christmas and your right it's even more quiet than as we get into the colder weather....day dreaming for some blue sky snowy days!
      Thanks again mate your a star!

Before we went, a good friend of us, who lives there, was shopping in Fairbanks and noticed three bottles of Ardbeg Dark Cove for a pretty low price. It was around 120-130 dollar per bottle or so. He texted me and I immediately asked him to buy all three bottles for us. One was a gift for him, the second, we emptied together, when we visited him and the third is now in the collection of my brother in law. I still have video of the moment, when we opened the Dark Cove in Alaska together. I plan to include this footage in a video, I will tell you, when it's edited.
