    I have done thiis walk dozens of times , and when I started doing it in the 60's , the main way up was the river bed through the boulders , but the vegetation is very much heavier than then .it still is the most incredible place . thank you

      I wondered if it was possible to go up the river bed, that’s why I started to come down that way. Glad you enjoyed the video 🙂

    Stephen,
    My daughter, her partner and I passed you as you were on your way up to shoot this, and us coming down, at the fixed rope section.
    What a great video this is.
    Well done sir. Good luck and fair play to you.

    That was epic. Loved your angles on the drone and to answer the question about the packing up. I think it depends on the location and the kit required - how critical the weather may have been etc or maybe most importantly if the topic has not been covered a million and more times, that said your perspective can always be an eye opener with a different approach. Like our water based content how many ppl in the UK are packing out for that type of trip.

    Brilliant Stephen! I think you’re one of the only people bringing an FPV drone wild camping, can I ask, was it the Avata?

    • @StephenJReid
      @StephenJReid  2 роки тому

      Thanks! I previously took the much bigger DJI FPV camping, but only once as it added over 2kg to my kit and it’s really bulky.
      Yes this was with the Avata, it and the Mini both fit into less space than the original FPV.

    Concerning the story about the MacDonalds hiding their rustled cattle in the hidden valley......as you'll have witnessed from the trail that ascends up into the Hidden Valley from Glencoe - unless the MacDonalds had access to a Chinook helicopter - no cattle rusted or otherwise made their way up to the Hidden valley. :-)
