- Join me for an adventure in the mountains. Safe to say the weather was pretty poor on this one which made for an eventful night high up in the mountains of glencoe. Hope you enjoy

Very good, you certainly captured the beauty of this wonderful area.
Outstanding filming man, what a fantastic atmosphere!
Hi mate. Absolutely brilliant, wow what a wild old hike off the hill. As you say, great fun though. All the very best, Dave 🥾😀⛰💨🌧️
Great vid as always definitely was worth it and really appreciate the effort not just of the hike but the filming and editing as well.
Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed
My friend you have the World with many exciting adventures to look forwards towards. Keep on Keeping on 🙌
Another good video, Maybe add a pair of ear plugs with your kit! Great thing about the mist, it's a good excuse to return on a more favourable day! Well done on finding that great camp spot and not bailing during the night. Cheers Mark.
Another great watch, thank you. Your positivity and sunny nature whatever the weather is rare indeed these days, as is a young man who has realised what really brings health and joy in life, and it certainly isn't drink and drugs etc. as so many seem to think.
Absolutely fantastic. You captured the weather conditions brilliantly..
As a 77 year old, I don't do any hard weather, rough conditions, and hill walking. It was wonderful to do this walk from my armchair, with a younger man taking the strain.
I look forward to following you on other walks. Be safe.
do you know what? sometimes I do miss taking the strain.
That was a wild one.
Layering up is definitely the best course in those conditions! Your filming is great by the way - move the camera too fast and it's all a blur, but you've got it just right!
Well done young man 👏🏔️👍
Great video & thanks for taking us along. Glencoe is magical for adventures & one of my favourite areas to go all year round. Devils Staircase is still on my list to do. Brilliant to see your passion and character expressed in abundance throughout your adventure. Your smile & laughter whilst enjoying the elements is just infectious. Stay safe & looking forward to the next adventure.
It would be nice to know your first name! 😊
Our young adventurers name is Gregor, I asked him a while ago.
Thanks for the kind words, yeh my name is Gregor 👍
Great video Gregor ,what a wild night 👍
I'm glad to see that you enjoyed yourself, despite the weather's best attempts to put a damper on your adventures.
Yeah, bit of a minger... There all nice little tops at the devil's side.. Well done 🙌
Great stuff 😊. Great to see young folk applying them selves and getting the most out of the fantastic outdoors! Glencoe holds special memories for our family and glen etive is something else again😃. All the best buddy. Already subbed 🫵👏👍🏼
Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it
OMG what a wild camp!! Amazing views and dramatic weather! Thanks. Cheers, John.
Where Eagles Dare🦅!!:
It takes a specially tough winged beastie (Scottish, of course!) to be wind-soaring in those conditions😮.
All other wild 'coorin timorous beasties' hiding in the heather from the elements and those Eagles' talons, except our intrepid summiteer munching happily through his tasty pasta meal, while the tent rocks to the force of the wind and 🌧.
Did you clean your teeth afterwards😂
Thanks
Thanks, really means a lot🙏
Great videos with awesome scenery. Please have a coffee on your next trip.
Thanks so much, a nice warm coffee will be much appreciated 😊
Get me off this mountain!! 😂 brilliant 👍
Excellent. I enjoyed this film very much. Buchaille Etive Mor is a favourite of mine. I think it was 1989 when walked the WHW. I wasn’t looking forward to the Devil’s Staircase but, like you, it wasn’t anywhere near as difficult as I’d imagined. Keep up the good work.
Fantastic video. Thank you for sharing.
I camped up on that summit a month ago. Made a snowman too pretty much where your tents pitched but obviously it’s melted now. Cracking spot for a camp. Good video buddy
Thanks mate, yeh it’s a great spot
Great video. Thank you for going out there and sharing your experience. Definitely it was a bit tough but you managed it. double thumb up
Brrr... cold & wet, wet & windy. That's why I'm now a fair weather hiker.
Watched it a bit late this time but damn this was fun and exciting ahaha, can't even imagine how it must've been for you!! Yet another wonderful adventure filled with good scenery, decent distanced hike and exciting weather conditions 🫡 thanks for taking us along. Hope you got to sleep later after reaching home, you looked completely knackered 🤣
Yeh could’ve slept for about a week straight after it haha

Is there ever a bad day up in Glencoe young fella ⛰️⛰️⛰️🏴🏴🏴🥾🥾 ⛺️ 🤟 What place was that your 1st time up the Devils Staircase? On a clear day the views are incredible i want to hike it and head towards Kinlochleven and back 😄 Glencoe is just magic you’ve got me in the mood for a visit back up there soon such a special place keep up the adventures ⛺️🥾⛰️🏴😆👍
Yeh that was my first time up the devils staircase. Will need to go back when the weathers a bit nicer and see the views
well done mate ..but cold pasta ?
Lovely British weather is that mate 😅
Hello 🙋♂️.
Hope you are good !!
Question:
When you eventually get back
home 🏠 and MT all your gear
out - how long is it taking you to dry
your gear, tent ⛺️ s/bag, ect ect ?
Do you dry your tent inside your
flat - or do you just wait for
a day that does not rain 🌧
and - get it done outside ??
Thanks 🙏
James 🫶✌️
Yeh I just wait till the weathers a bit nicer and stick it outside. Normally doesn’t take too long to dry
