    Lovely spot! Heading up that way myself next week (keeping one eye on the weather) Looking at my map, that's about a 20km walk from Stinchar bridge? Great video, looks a great place! Subbed!

      @leslietennant1 you had a pretty good day for it then I think. I don’t know if you realise but our paths have crossed before. My memory is terrible so I don’t remember specifics but I think it was out with the guys from the Renfrewshire Rodeo and the route involved a ferry on the way home. 🚴‍♂️

    That was a beautiful hike out to the bothy. I don't know if you carry a folding lightweight handsaw but I think I would unless the fallen trees break easy with your foot. It's a great place to meet random people from different walks of life too. Poor Floyd looked shattered, but he got there. Thanks for sharing. Another great video.

    • @OutdoorsColin
      @OutdoorsColin 9 місяців тому

      Thanks Chris. Yes, I have an army surplus folding saw which was really handy at Cadderlie as the bothy had no saw. The other guy who was there had an axe which was ideal for producing some vital kindling as everything was soaking wet. 👍

    Hardly lost if youtubers keep promoting such places. Don't understand the narcissistic mentality that people have to film everything they do and publish it. The algorithms then push this stuff far and wide. Native civilisations used to say the camera stole their souls and maybe in a way they were right the way now social media has ended up.

Watching this type of video rekindled my interest in the outdoors and I’m having a great time getting out and about and sharing my experiences. I’m sure plenty of people think I’m a bit of a plonker and who could blame them 😆 but I’ve had enough positive feedback to encourage me to continue to produce this content. I wish you all the best for 2024 Matt and hope that you find peace in the new year ahead.

    fantastic wee adventure, the winter skies are just incredible, somebody asked me about whether my video was morning or evening and i had to tell him this was midday in scotland hehehe. so the drone, amazing shots by the way, when these batteries get cold they loose the top end of their amp output, voltage drops, and we get a thing called a brown out, the voltage is too low to operate all the processors and stuff, dji should warn you though? anyway, its best to keep the drone and battery especially as warm as possible, in winter i literally use a hot water bottle, (fanta bottle inside a sock) then when you take off its probably best to do a few higher power things to get the battery giving off heat. that said, short of a fur coat, wind chill will always win,

      If you take the Auchindarroch turn off of the A828 and park in the forestry commission car park, you only have a 2 mile easy walk in. Just don’t miss the big bolders where you leave the forestry track like I did 🤦‍♂️
