Ben More and Stob Binnein in Winter condition
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 тра 2021
- Enjoying some snow in May and possibly the last of winter high in Scotland's Mountains . There is nothing unusual about snow in May , especially in Scotland's Mountains so we headed out after a cold spell to enjoy the last signs of winter on one of Scotlands highest mountains....

Regardless of the weather conditions Ben Moor is one heck of a slog right from the road side but the views are wonderful.
Did the pair years ago in crisp snow. Crampons on from the car. Clear blue skys and a blue tint on the snow. Magnificent! Thx guys for the memories.
They are a fine brace of hills for sure :) always better with blue skies above :)
Thanks for watching

Never cast a cloot till May's oot! ❄️❄️
We just arrived back from Torridon last night and couldn't believe it when we arrived last week to still see snow on the munro's of Liathach and Beinn Eighe. We attempted Liathach but decided the conditions didn't suit us and we descended at 900m, we'll just have to return in a few weeks when the weather conditions are more favourable for us. Lovely video as always.
That first view of Stob Binnein when descending Ben More looked just incredible.
Wow, Murray, what an absolute belter 😮😎👍. Some stunning images, again 😎. Love it. ATB Dave
Thanks Dave - looks like you have been getting out and about too - great to be getting back out :)

The steep hike up has alway put me off doing this, maybe one day but not during winter.
Cheers Murray. Vista and snow conditions looked perfect on way down 👌 Eyes drawn to Cruach Ardrain and Beinn Tulaichean in particular. They look dwarfed by the perspective and prominence of the Ben More massif!
Brilliant video as always! Stob Binnein looked amazing from up there, look forward to doing these two 😄
Another fantastic trip, superb views but not the last of the snow 😉
Cheers to you and gerry again ,summers day on the bottom and winter on the top,amazing
Brilliant.
Another cracking video. Thanks Murray!
Looks absolutely gorgeous!
Gorgeous shots of Stob Binnein. It's such a beautiful, yet under-rated mountain, due to being just very slightly overshadowed by Ben More.
Great views. I am back in scotland from last saturday. Did already 4 Munros. Snow bit like that I had only sunday at Ben Klibreck. Now its all melted down.
hopefully spring and summer will appear at some point soon ! lol
Take care and thanks for watching

Nice one Murray, great video as always. I had a really snowy day out on Beinn Teallach and Beinn a'Chaorainn on Friday past. Incredible snow for May 😁.
What a guy, that Gerry!!! Cutting a path and providing accommodations for you both? Sainthood in the making..... excellent snowy trip up Ben More, Murray. Until next winter....
Hahahah...
Love it ♥☺
Brilliant, as always.
Brilliant video gents, looking forward to all your adventures coming up over the next few months. And you never know we might bump in to you when we are up in the Highlands later in the summer! 😀⛰🏴🥾
Gosh I've missed this type of thing this year...well done and lucky you for capturing so we can do some armchair mountaineering. Love it
Hope you enjoyed the adventure - there's a good one coming next week from Ben Nevis :)

Cutting steps in mid May, excellent ice axing!
Colour coordinated to thr max today!!! Absolutely fantastic!
Becoming a big fan of this channel. Giving me a Scottish Highlands fix when down in Yorkshire. Conditions and views there looked incredible. Fond memories of staying at Crainlarich Youth Hostel in 2013.
Thanks guys what a fantastic day out.....
Stay safe ATB
👍🏔
Good Afternoon from New Zealand Great Snow in May Video, thanks for sharing, have a great rest of your week
An excellent video Murray, great cinematography giving a real feel of the atmosphere on the 'Big Hill' and its good to see a man who is not afraid to coordinate his Jacket and Rucksack. atb. Mark&Louise
Think I'm being spoilt with all these snowy videos into May. Another fantastic video to watch Murray. Winter lingering in Scotland to give us these fantastic images. As always thanks for sharing and stay safe ATB
Lifts the spirits. Wonderful. Thanks for sharing this footage.
Done Ben more few weeks back and camped loch lubhair Ben mores hard going legs were in bits for good few days after great views though 👌
Time constraints my backside, you’re just lazy! 😁😁
I’m writing this having just consumed a full English which I believe I’ve earned due to my sleeping marathon of 10 hours. Fantastic adventure a always. Thanks for showing us what lazy people like myself are missing out on.
Top drawer as always.

Cracking view at the end
Those tremendous views up there is an absolute blessing to see! Cheers for sharing this with us, Murray! Makes me want to go on winter hiking lessons. 🙈 Take care always, Mari
Looks like you made the most of the last snow !!! Another EPIC video...... just spent 5 days up in North west was truly amazing .....your videos really do it justice . Take care.
Great video Murray. Loved it. Would love to get a walk in snow like that in the hills. That's where experience comes in 👍. Really enjoyed watching. Atb Steve 👍

I just love your videos. A special distraction this year as we are still under a 'stay at home' order.
Done this 2 weeks ago... had to slide down the top of stob binnein as it was so icy it was a good laugh but slightly dodgy 😂
Amazing views and filming 👍.
Absolutely fantastic... Love your over commentaries too... Wondered did you or do you ever use binoculars on your hikes Murray ? Cud be good to soak in more views on a long wild camp day ...
Hi Merky, thanks for the message. I don’t tend to take them (mainly due to weight ) but am thinking of having them in the campervan for use when I get it back out and about )👍👍
Take care and thanks for watching

I wish we had snow and ice in the North West... but I have to travel to Wales or Scotland and from Manchester Scotland is a good 5hrs drive to Fort William and Isle of Skye at least 7hrs ... your so lucky to have snow in the mountains, I'd be in my element for sure, hoping to plan a trip to do the Cuillin Ridge in the summer and hopefully do this in Jan and Feb next year 👍🙂
hope you get good weather when you get back up here :)

So hard to believe the difference in the conditions.
Brilliant (who was the climber in front?) great climb and as always very enjoyable and safe, thank you.
Awesome video again! I appreciate you taking room to pack a camera and filming your experiences.
Edit: what walking poles are they?
thanks - hope you enjoy the videos :)
Got a video about the trekking poles in my gear playlist which maybe of interest :

Another good steaming boots video.
Glad you’re back on UA-cam. It’s probably the closest I’ll get to Scotland for a while.
Ps liking all the new clothing. Mammut by any chance with all that blue & orange?
Yeah- new mamut mid layer and Keela coat 👍👍
I enjoy the “color commentary” from your mate...(I’m not sure if he’s Gerry or Jerry, or some other version of the name, as I don’t trust the closed captions to be correct!) ATB
Gerry! BW
Gerry always brightens up the trip - great to be able to get back out together :)

Awesome video! Im looking at doing Ben nevis CMD acrete from glen nevis. Would my mendel extreme boots be suitable?
Murray, been wondering this for a while, but would you consider yourself a Scot or a Gael?
not really ever thought about that one TBH :) maybe both (along with many other things lol)
