A very wet & claggy day in the Mamores (Glen Nevis) in Scotland, not a lot to see but good exercise & strangely enjoyable, would you venture out in these conditions ? Anyway another 2 Munros bagged Stob Ban & Mullach nan Coirean with Tam aka @themunrobagger

A wild & extremely windy day on the Fiacaill Ridge in the Cairngorms, then a wee jaunt over to Cairn Gorm with @hikingwithfrank315 & Alistair Thow, bonkers but brilliant.

Epic day lads. 👏 Put hairs oan yur chests 😉 I went that way a few years ago with the club bus.. Never made the summit as we ran out of time. Nice but long approach. Did them a few years later from the other side.
Long approach is right Kev, 4.5 hrs to get to the bloody summit 🏔😳 cheers mate atb Brian 👍

Good evening Brian, cracking walk mate with some stunning views as always, looked a chilly one.
It was on reflection a cracking walk 🤣 only felt cold 🥶 at the usual points, changing batteries or taking photos 📸 but all in all a great wee day 😀 cheers Dave atb Brian 👍
Looked amazing Brian even without any views...Tough work in the snow but good to get out - Good job lads. ⛄❄👍
Great to get out to play in the snow Dave but aye tough gig 🤪 cheers atb Brian 👍
Cool video Brian, I clocked some nice camera placements in their. Looked a mighty walk. Well done to you and Ally mate

Good job mate, I've been neglecting my youtube duties for a while now bud, had a lot on my plate with 1 thing and another, hopefully the worst is behind me now, looking forward to some good adventures this year, great vid and vlog bud ATVB Tam
Can't wait to team up again bud, cheers atb Brian 👍
Hi Brian, i was near by at Beinn Chabhair on Thursday last week. I was up to the waist in snow for some of it. Was hard going, a beautiful day
BC is one of the boggiest Munros i have ever done 😳 that sounds like one tough day 😮
@@thelifeofbrian282 It was fine Brian, I did it from the Hydro station at the north side, not from Inverarnan and the boggie bits were frozen solid, was the same when I did Beinn Challum a year ago. So was not too bad, deep snow was hard work though.
@McConnachy clever thinking 🤔 👍
Nice and moody conditions for a hike 👍🙂
Yes atmospheric Stig 🤪
Strath Ban falls are beautiful. There's also some airplane wreckage on the western slopes of Bheula.
Its a cracking mountain with a lot of history Alan, I really enjoyed it 🏔 atb Brian 👍
👍
Dreich lads...I did them in similar conditions. A pair I'd like to repeat
Might need to revisit again myself mate 🏔🏔 cheers atb Brian 👍
Awesome view
It sure is Dave 👌
A great adventure mate, although white out conditions are not very pleasant. I had them last year on a walk. I felt mentally drained by the time I got back down. Hard hard work.
Certainly is hard going and a test of character Dave 😅
Brilliant Brian, I last climbed this in the late 90s. The Fannich mountains are my favourites, ATB, Angus
Beautiful part of the world Angus, cheers atb Brian 👍
A Bothy !? Och I can na be Bothered.
😳
Great video and adventure ❄️🙂
Cheers Stig 👍
Brilliant again Brian at great walk up on the ridge and good looking scrambles aswell that wind that day was mental need to get myself up there to do the ridge sometime. Atb Ally 👌 👍
Aye it's a great wee ridge walk Ally, obviously with you being on Bynack More that day, you know how crazy the winds were 🤪 cheers bud atb Brian 👍
Brian, excellent video! That definitely looked like fun. My dog was in the same room as I watched. Whenever the team dogs howled, my dog heard and joined in... Call of the wild. Thanks!.. Chip
Cheers Chip, a fantastic experience with beautiful huskies, I'm glad you're dog 🐕 appreciated the video, does that count as 2 likes 🤣 cmon the dog's 🐶 atb Brian 👍
👍😀
Environmentally friendly to the butter end! Lol! Butt I'm sure there's a blur tool for faces and faeces LOL!
Where about are you Brian? Is it Finland?
This was Swedish Lapland Angus a couple of years ago, I found a lot of wee short videos on my phone, thought I might as well share them, cheers atb Brian 😲
@@thelifeofbrian282 Quite right, no use wasting them. lol!
@@thelifeofbrian282 Ive been to Finnish Lappland, really enjoyed my time there, great people also. ATB, Angus 👍
Cracking day Brian! Loved that wee bum slide.😂😂
Strangely enough one of my favourite days in the hills and you can't be a wee glissade Paulo 🤣 cheers atb Brian 👍
Wow you get up to some high jinks Brian!😂
One tries ones best Terry 🤪
Exciting stuff Brian! Those tinted goggles were a good idea in those white out conditions. A few years since we did that bum slide with the club😂 brilliant if you mind any boulders 😂ATB…Terry
Aye sometimes the tinted goggles come in handy Terry and the big wean loves a wee slide on his bahookie avoiding boulders at all costs of course 😉 cheers Terry atb Brian 👍
Awesome video Brian. I remember doing Ben Macdui a couple of years ago. I didn't realise i downloaded the wrong route and took me upto the ridge. Kinda shat myself and decended down the boulders and across the field till I got to the tourist path. Thanks to a couple on the ridge who did offer to guide me along but I was still fairly new to munro bagging but declined the offer. They did point me in the right direction to the tourist path. I was ready to give up but pushed to at least bag Ben Macdui. Brilliant watch mate. I hope I eventually build up the courage to do this one day. ATVB Alan
That's going to live long in your memory Alan, I'm glad you got down safe and still had enough in the tank to go and do Ben McDui 🏔 💪 I'm sure you'll get round to the ridge when you're ready, cheers mate atb Brian 👍
Cracking Brian 😊 never done that ridge before and now want to! That’s definitely going to be a summer trip for me…nice one mate. Paulo
Well worth a visit Paulo 👍
Thank you for sharing this hike with us. Amazing view. Greetings from Poland.
Thanks very much from Scotland 🏴 to Poland 🇵🇱 atb Brian 👍
Fekk that's cold Brian, I've seen -27 where I grew up in the north east of Scotland, our house only had one coal fire, had to sleep with the clothes in the bed, or they were like card board in the morning and you couldnae get them on!
Its ok in the big down sleeping bag, they provide you with but as soon as you have to get moving OMG 😲 🥶🤣
Superb Brian 😍👌🏻..That scramble looks amazing mate ..Defo on my list ..Enjoyed that Brian 😁 Cheers Murchie
Aye you would love it bud 🏔 cheers atb Brian 👍
🥾👍😀
Cheers 👍
Nice one chaps 👌 good wee scramble that eh. Altho you get right into it then boom, ends quickly. A fine day anaw Bry albeit windy. 😎
Aye could have been doing with some more ridge Kev 😩 but aye a guid day albeit a tad windy 😜 cheers mate atb Brian 👍
Another brilliant but scary vid Brian! 👍
Aye not for you this one mate 😂
Those narrow rocky ridges combined with that wind made for a great scrambling adventure. Well done, fellows. 👍 Thanks Brian.
Aye the conditions 💨 certainly spiced it up a wee bit Chip 😜 thanks again atb Brian 👍
Brilliant mate, what a day eh. That’ll live long in the memory bank. Some stunning footage there mate esp going up the ridge which was fantastic. Just a tad too windy for the drones 🤣🤣 great recap of our day, till the next time. Adios😂
Absolutely fantastic day and something a wee bit different, like you say, it will live long in memory, aye we will need to do it again when it's not so windy 💨 to get some drone footage 😀 Superb bud 👌 atb Brian 👍
Cracking video mate, loved it. Just subscribed from a fellow UA-camr 😉👍

Hi Brian. I nice old breezy one for you. Stunning views though mate.👍⛰🥾
It certainly was Dave 😮 but aye great views 👌 cheers mate atb Brian 👍
Looks like the wind added an extra dimension to the ridge Brian…bet you enjoyed that…🤙
Aye definitely Dave, sometimes just as you were mid - step the strong winds would almost blow you over, not a normal Saturday but very enjoyable 😜 cheers bud atb Brian 👍
Fair play to you guys that looked a proper challenge, Brian, especially with that wind 😮 Well done 👏 great video, as always mate 🤜🤛
There were a few squeaky bum moments due to the wind Dave 🤣 cheers mate atb Brian 👍
@thelifeofbrian282 I would have shat it to continue.. 🤣
@DG.ADVENTURES 🤣🤣🤣
Nice one Brian and well done taking it on in those winds.It's a cracking wee ridge.Only found out about the ridge the day before I was going to do Macdui.I had always thought there wasn't any in the Cairngorms so this was a Brucie bonus.😂😂 Now had the pleasure of taking it on in full winter and summer conditions.😎👍
Aye it's cracking Andy, I wouldn't mind going back to do it again at some point, very enjoyable 👌 cheers atb Brian 👍
Fantastic hike and climb 👌
Cheers Stig 👍
