    I did these mountains maybe 20 years ago. Your beautiful video brought memories flooding back as I had an almost identical day! We (my wife and I) had a cloud inversion and lots of rolling cloud through the day. Thank you for giving me wonderful memories of these lovely mountains.

      Cheers Paul, shame about the poor weather you got - good reason to go back one day! Also well done on reaching 100 😁

    Hi James, thanks for a beautifully filmed video. Just first rate. Haven’t been to Scotland since my great hiking partner and brother passed away. We had some great trips. Maybe I’ll get over again. You’ve done very well to get near one hundred. Happy trails in completing the Munros.

      Thanks for watching Micheal, sorry to hear that - hopefully you will get back one day.

    You are quite right James about the drifting cloud days having more about them than the pure blue skies but they're both very nice. This day looks great. You are also right about the horseshoe from the south, longer but a great circuit. Alternatively you could bike from Inchnadamh to the southern start and walk over the hills to your vehicle.

    • @ScottishMunroJourney
      @ScottishMunroJourney  2 роки тому

      Yes, almost adds to the atmosphere 😁 I will maybe try the horseshoe route another time, always great to have different options.

    Great video! I'll be going for photography on this one in October- great reference video for some views! :D

      Conival seems to have some good pitching opportunity up top too- I was expecting it to be much more rocky based on the OS aerial map but that's surprising (and a good surprise at that.)

    Closing in on 100! Nice one James. I was very confused as well with the 2 summits at Ben more and the other looks higher no matter what one you are on. If in the area again I do recommend Stac Pollaidh and Suilven. Both magnificent! I much preferred these walks over the 2 Munros.

    • @ScottishMunroJourney
      @ScottishMunroJourney  3 роки тому +1

      Cheers Andrew, it was confusing - better to be safe and go to both 😂 yeah will definitely be doing stac pillaidh/suilven in the future, they even look better than than the Munros do.. thats sometimes the problem with munro bagging 😂

    Did these two on a 30 deg heat day! Found the loose stone murder to walk in! Took me 8.5ish hours to do but i got it done haha!

    • @ScottishMunroJourney
      @ScottishMunroJourney  3 роки тому

      That would be hard going in the heat! It was a bit of a nightmare to walk in, takes longer than expected.. great day though 😁

      @ScottishMunroJourney  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks Anthony 😁 it was a great walk, not 100% sure but I think it must be around 300-400 miles, will total it up one day 😂
