Tis a lovely route and our paths were so close to crossing... Merely meters in it. I Also stopped to natter with the 3 lads heading down to Marks.. and if I had known, i would have popped back down with my stove... Thank you for sharing.. Jim. 😎😎
Haha would’ve been much appreciated, cold food is never as nice. Think it’s more impressive we didn’t cross paths considering how similar the routes were
You really notice and appreciate nature, and the peace and solitude of the wilds of Scotland, remarkable similarity to parts of my country (New Zealand) .... keep the vids coming, they're awesome
So relaxing watching and listening to you. I would imagine they'll be planting new trees. Well have the Bonnie views for a good few years to come. 🤣🤣🤣 turn back 😊😊 More stunning views. Thank you so much for this wonderful trip. 🙏🙏👍👍💛💛👍👍🙏🙏
Great videos...been following your adventures...... It's not deforestation. They were planted as a crop 40 years ago.. The crop now being harvested.....Will be replanted ,hopefully with more native species..............
Awesome video,the scenery is boss.Nice to see a little bit of your personality shine through with the joke about the fallen tree,made me smile.Stay safe mate.look forward to the next one.
Thanks for taking us along with you on another hike 🌲🐑 it was such a beautiful place. Amazing when you have a place like that all to yourself. Too bad about the jet boil, though. A hot meal and cup of tea would have been so welcome in those temps. It's good to see you becoming comfortable enough to joke around and have fun while you record 😀 Stay safe out there.
That was a lovely video on what proved to be two fine winter days. The middle part of your route was across what was known as Argyll's Bowling Green and was marked as such on some older maps of the area. Not very flat, nor green for a game of bowls and the reason it was called that is a corruption of the Gaelic name Baile na Grèine meaning sunny hamlet or village. The whole area you walked in is the Ardgoil Peninsula and in days gone by, the Duke's Path was used by folk from the Lochgoilhead area, up past the Corran Lochan (where you camped), and down to the ferry across Loch Long at Mark (near the bothy you have stayed in). This was part of their route to the south - Glasgow in particular. You are correct in saying that it has a remote feel but yet is not very distant from places like Inveraray, Helensburgh, Dumbarton and Glasgow.
Thanks for taking me along on another adventure. I’m really enjoying your videos! You’ve got me inspired to try and follow in your footsteps might make this route my first attempt. Looking forward to your next instalment. All the best mate.
Clarity of imagery, blue skies, and lochs. Technical excellence, but brought alive with the personal observation of the water and mountain landscapes and wildlife around you, and, ahem, the odd incidents to give us a laugh😂. I don't know if you realise but one of your signature items when camping is scrubbing your teeth in the morning. As a frequent occupant (and often painful) of dentists chairs, I wholeheartedly recommend the practice😅
Watched it a bit late this time but enjoyed it thoroughly as usual! Great video yet again man keep going and growing. Will be waiting for more adventures
Nice one. It's a kind of spiritual thing I suppose, being a bit closer than you usually are to the rest of nature, that finds no need of boots and tents and waterproofs!
A relaxing 17+ minutes, whilst eating my porridge 👍Another nice touch is 'crystal clear' clarity of the video - Would be interesting to learn what camera is used. Onwards and Upwards.
Cracking views and yet another awesome VLOG, also, that is exactly the sort of joke my girlfriend and I would make so it must, in fact, be an awesome joke. 😂
Thanks
Bloody brilliant mate. Cracking views. Great job pointing stuff out along the way. Appreciated
Thanks man. Really means a lot. All the best
Thank you. You have a way of finding the best scenes.

I just use an I phone to film. Shoot it all in 4k though, takes up so much space but worth it for the quality
@@ScottishSummiteer Quality is superb. I'm one of the 'old school' Pentax Spotmatic ! I know, I know, I need to jump into the 21st Century🤣
brilliant
There was a lovely youth hostel at Ardgartan. Sadly no more and now a luxury hotel.
Yeh that’s a shame
Cracking views and yet another awesome VLOG, also, that is exactly the sort of joke my girlfriend and I would make so it must, in fact, be an awesome joke. 😂
Haha love to hear it, glad I’m not the only one who makes rubbish jokes😂😂
Great views against a perfect blue sky, if it wasn’t for your accent I wouldn’t believe you were in Scotland. 😅
