    I done the Pap of Glencoe a number of year's ago now,it may not be the highest of mountains but it sure does get the heart rate up,the rocky section at the top can be pretty tricky underfoot whatever the weather.. amazing views from an amazing wee mountain,thanks for sharing another great adventure with us 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    Sun, snow, just stunning mountains and lochs, every crag and ravine picked out in the low angle sun.
    Awe inspiring summit views all around and back to the mamores and the top of Garbh Bheinn that you climbed in near 30 degree heat last summer, Scotland's wonderful weather variety, what would we do without it!!
    Felt sorry for the poor cattle, standing with a bit of manky hay in sub-zero conditions, no sign of a warm byre to shelter in.😢

    Really enjoyed this video. Brought back a few memories for us as we did the Pap a few years ago. We had a glorious day in May and like you were able to enjoy the views from the top. So pleased you got to the top and were able to enjoy the views. Even when it’s freezing cold day it makes it all worthwhile. Keep getting out there and sharing your adventures. We will be following along.

    WOW! Juswt wow! Since I first set eyes upon it in 1974, I always fancied doing that one myself, but never got around to it - so, thanks for sharing it! Those are pretty special views, and in every direction, too. The mountains in the background at 03:20 are on Morvern, which is one of those relatively unknown parts of Scotland with incredible scenery.

    The views are great from this wee hill.. Think your winter trek looks better than my summer one did.👍
    The path is in a terrible condition in parts , either you skipped that part or the snow and ice covered it..?
    I personally think Buachaille Etive Beag is easier , mainly because the path is far better ..

    • @ScottishSummiteer
      @ScottishSummiteer  8 місяців тому

      Yeh I think the snow must’ve covered the bad parts. Seemed to be fairly easy on the snow. Think I found this one easier due to us getting some pretty awful weather on buachaille etive beag😂😂

    Sorry to go off on a tangent, but im scratching my head as to why a group of your earliest videos have dropped off the viewing list. Is this just a U tube thing?
    I was prompted by your mention of the Bidean and looked to your earlier exploit on that hill from wild camp in the hidden valley??
