- In this video, I head to Torridon to tackle one of the best boulders in the UK!
Climbing in the Scottish Highlands was a magical experience with amazing bouldering on perfect sandstone and all within an unbelievable landscape.
I really hope you enjoy the video and let me know what you think about the latest additions to the Fifty Best 7th Grade Boulders!

My wife and I love seeing you climb. Now we see you with your family, and that also makes us very happy. Let’s see when you continue with your series of training and advice again. Greetings!
This series feels so wholesome! It's just really sweet and the landscapes are beautiful
Thank you!
The way this is my favorite climbing series
This was ace Shauna, great to see you sharing such a world class venue. Malc's is such a classic!
Great series Shauna - can't wait to see what area is featured next 👀

Such a fantastic video!!
Thank you 😊!
So cool! Gotta Show my wife: see? You can very well go climbing with kids!
U re one of my most beloved climbers, because you always seem to enjoy yourself while doing it.
Added to my life list
You should rate the boulders out of 10 in several different categories, then calculate the average score to see which make it into your top 50. Location could be one of the categories :).
This sounds like a good idea we should have done earlier 😂.
Ah but then do you weight the categories! and if a boulder is truly amazing in one category then subjectively it sometimes feels like it should be in anyway even if the average says no. There's no perfect system.
@@hotbeefo you could use a formula that disproportionately weights very high category scores
@@hotbeefo that all depends on how many / which categories you choose, and how you high you rate.
I'm curious if you've heard of Eric Jerome from the U.S. - he is working on making a list of the top 100 double digit (V-grades) and top 100 single digit boulders in the U.S. He has a clear formula that attempts to be as objective as possible (like how obvious the start holds are, the landing, the line/feature, is it contrived, height, location, rock quality, etc.) that he uses to judge boulders. I would be curious to see what you thought of his criteria and what criteria you would prioritize if you were to make your own metrics. Love this series!@@ShaunaCoxseyClimber
Such a cool vibe to that part❤
As parents of a 1 year old, we find some of this amusingly relatable. But we wonder: do babies of the "evening outing" kind even exist? 🤔😄
😂
8:21 ruined the baby's chances of flashing the balgy prow! He's touching holds he cannot reach from the ground
Great video great location
Glad you enjoyed it! ☺️
When you hesitate at the top of the boulder and dropped repeatedly, i felt so seen LMFAO
💪💪🔥🔥🔥
Who’s betting that Shauna and Ned’s baby will be the first to climb V19?
Not sure if it was an edit error but isn’t fridge too far 7C?
So we weren't fully clear where the start was but we think the lower start is 7C/7C+ and where I started was around 7B+ (we think). Have a go and let us know what you think! 😂
@@ShaunaCoxseyClimber ah from what I’ve read it was 7C+ from low and 7C from the jug. I tried it when I was up there and thought it was nails haha, bunch of my friends repeated it and all thought hard 7C!
That's right. It has been sandbagged at 7B+ from jug, but it's absolutely a 7C and lower start 7C+@@Carlosallouchimontero
what's the song at 14:00?
