Driesh and Mayar are excellent munroes for beginners. If you're a beginner, climb in summer and check the weather forecast beforehand; avoid if it's cold, wet or windy for a good experience. Stick to the Kilbo path. Remember, never climb alone, and have a map, compass, and good, warm, waterproof clothing and good footwear with you. Stay safe.
Good video mate !! Look forward to the one where you were speaking about getting yourself wet with the fall 😂 cold exposure at the end was laughing at that clip 😂 🐟
Great video Driesh and Mayar were my very 1st Munros back in 1992, they are Munros that I have a lot of affection for. I'm now only 3 summits away from completing my 2nd round of the Munros, but I still enjoy going back to Driesh and Mayar time and time again. Thanks again for sharing.
@@DanMunroMan I have Sgurr nan Gillean and Sgurr Dubh Mor on Skye to do then I will climb Slioch to complete. I finished 1st time around on Slioch as well.
I've climbed Driesh and Mayar many times. Once I did these, but up The Scorrie to Driesh first, in 100 mph winds one February. It was bracing, choking, very turbulent with me on my ice axe and very bleak! I nearly gave up, maybe I should have done. I survived though, evidently.
@@DanMunroMan You're right, I shouldn't have done but I couldn't resist the challenge at the time. I got up the steep part round the right hand side of the Scorrie ok, then the wind hit on the more level bit leading up to Driesh. I met two climbers there crabbing down and looking terrified. The first words I heard were, "Don't go up there!" as I crabbed past them, the wind being too loud for any kind of proper conversation. I would definitely turn back nowadays, though. It was back in the days when the ex-RAF guy Danny was the warden of Glen Doll youth hostel, so I'm talking a long time ago. I'm older and more sensible now.
These beginner friendly ones is making my mum want to start hillwalking 🤣 keep it up!
Aw thankyou! Hope ill see her up the hills soon then!

@@Marchawc wow thats a crazy story! Oh how the time flys by
What's the ap called again Daniel?
Relive is that the one?
You seemed to burn more calories on this walk but with less miles. I wonder if that is to do with the cold water exposure?
Oh! So the first one i used a calorie calculator because i didnt have my fit bit yet, but i bring my fit bit on the rest of them!
