  • This walk takes in the four munros to the east of The Fannaichs. A weather day of two halfs with snow and strong winds for the first hills before things improved. Winter is dragging its heels as the low temperatures give little indications of summer warmth.

      Hi Philip, Glad you enjoyed our trip into the Fannaichs. There are a super range of hills with contrast throughout. ATB, Charlie.

    Again a useful and entertaining film. I love the hills when you get such changeable weather( particularly when I’m watching it from the comfort of my armchair), it makes life a bit more interesting and the contrast in colours is amazing.
    I also admire you for your geographical mountain spotting skills, you have me pausing every two mins and checking my OS map to work out what fits where.
    Very informative as always and helping me plan and tick off the remaining 95 Munro’s I have still to do.
    Thanks Charlie

      Hi Timothy, Your into double figures to complete so you’ll have a good idea of the changing conditions the Scottish hills present you with. Hope you enjoy the remaining tops which also get harder as the total decreases. Cheers Charlie.

    Looked at these on Saturday, but opted for the bike and Strath Vaich instead after looking at The MWIS forcast because of the winter gear risk (I'm not confident enough or equipped enough for winter hills) .. Just binged all three vids this morning too.
    Looks like a corker of a few days mate Atb Andy.

    So changeable Charlie. I could feel the cold as you headed up that first hill. Cant help but love British summer time. 🤣⛷. Great wee film again. Still to make my way up here. Paul

      Hi Paul, You'll certainly enjoy these hills once you get around to them. It's just a magic area with the sea and mountain combination. Take care, Charlie.

    Great video Charlie. Do you mind me asking how far on the loop is the water feature at 0:46? Fancy taking some photos of that for my Portfolio. Thanks.

    • @charliemccartney7055
      @charliemccartney7055  Рік тому +1

      Hi Bruce, There are quite a few water features on the river that's worth a photo. They aren't far from the car, possibly 2km at most, and you could easily wonder up the path on the west side. It's a super area and well worth a visit and I suspect water levels could change the features quite a bit.
      Enjoy....... Cheers, Charlie

    An interesting adventure, Charlie. Looks more like a day in November than May - not a sign of any real change in the hills to summer conditions. Where did you start this round from, just east of Loch Droma on the Dirrie Mor, as I think I recognised the Met station behind you.

    • @charliemccartney7055
      @charliemccartney7055  3 роки тому +1

      Hi Ian, We started at the east end of Loch Droma and completed the loop from there. The first hill was pretty wild and more like winter than summer, the camera didn't quite capture just how bad it was. Roll on summer... Cheers, Charlie.
