    I visited Scotland for the first time back in April and spent a week roaming around the country. Of all the things I did and experienced, climbing Marsco and experiencing the view at the top was probably the best experience of my trip and one of the best of my life. Cheers.

      It's a really nice hill, well situated amongst the Cuillin for great views of the area. Glad you enjoyed it.

    It's like a 'spot the dog' competition at the summit - love it!
    It seems a lot more hospitable (ie less rocky) up there than other Scottish mountains

      Aye, the doggo loved it up there, still a young pup at the time so would have been very exciting running around exploring. It's a nice grassy hill for Skye, all the other big hills on the island do tend to be very rocky. Cheers.

    8:50 - is that a broch?

      Hi, I think it's just a wee bivy site to shelter from the wind.
      Cheers.

    Very little snow on show there Andy! Still lathered with snow down in the cairngorms. That's a few cracking days out you have had! More amazing views and absolutely loved that narrow ridge section. The shots of your friend walking in front were stunning! Cheers mate. Paul

      Hi Paul. Aye just a few pockets of snow left now over here, mostly on the north faces. Must be the salty sea air. Kinda nice not having to carry the crampons and axe again though. Cheers, ATB.

    Amazing intro with the jets flying above and those views from the 8:15 mark on are just incredible.

      Hi. There were 4 jets that went by but couldn't get the camera out in time for the first two. Would be great fun flying through all the valleys in those things. Cheers.

    The views up to Marsco look amazing.
    I’m going Skye in a couple of weeks and will have to give that a try.
    Cheers.

      It's a great hill, though a bit boggy lower down, after you turn left at the river at 1:35. Some gaiters are a good idea for that part. Cheers, Andy.

    Does the RAF give you a send off on all your hikes, or only the really epic ones?!

    • @andy-astro
      @andy-astro  2 роки тому

      Haha. Just the epic ones, and only when we have Mina the dog with us. She gets all the attention. Cheers.

      I don't know much about it, but I think it might just a bivvy site. Cheers, Andy.
