Take care. Its very helpful and interesting listening to your website. I'll write a bit more an other time.

Thank you Stewart, glad you find the videos useful 👍

I once got lost in the mountains in the fog. Now I knew where I was and the next second I was going down a slope full of slippery tree trunks.. It was summer. In winter such a situation would have been fatal. Very interesting videos!

[@thecampingastronomer8554]

Glad you enjoyed the videos 😊. Even in summer, slippery tree roots could give you a twisted ankle and leave you stranded, so I think you did well to get back safely 👍

Most enlightening and makes you appreciate the differences between an amateur walker (me) and someone with serious intent (you). Thanks again John.

Hello John, mrs. Camping Astronomer did a fine job...Kat and I have been doing ours too! Another mighty fine video, very detailed and well explained. This is a super series. Love the stones tip! Thanks for this, Ceri and Kat ❤🤗🧭☕

I have to have my hair cut again now as this was filmed 3 weeks ago and Miss & Mrs Camping Astronomer were playing it a bit safe. Miss CA will be doing it again this weekend and being a bit more adventurous (so she tells me) 🤣🤣

The Ben Nevis is no joke. The 1st time I did it (snow and cloud) only realised when i was staring down at a gray line i was stand less than 1 foot from the very edge, and didn't even know. I've since done it 3 times and i am extremely cautious and careful.

[@thecampingastronomer8554]

Absolutely right, I think many people under estimate Ben Nevis, particularly in winter.

Thanks again. Some useful tips there.

[@leoncorns1450]

I came to your channel through astrophotography but I'm also a keen hill walker and lost my bearings a few times. So this video was very interesting and very well edited.

[@thecampingastronomer8554]

Thanks for that nice comment Leon, I really appreciate it. Part 1 covered taking a bearing which is linkef in the description of this video. Part 3 will be up in 10 days and covers what to do when you get lost, which I hope will also be useful. Thanks for taking tge time to watch and comment 🙂👍

Blimey...Ben Nevis isn’t a place for mere mortals by the sound of this Jon 😳. Rubbish fitness levels would keep me away, and now I realise that rubbish orienteering abilities would also be the death of me 😬! I could do the hot chocolate and sausage roll thing though 🤣😂😊

[@thecampingastronomer8554]

I'm especially good at the sausage roll bit 🤣🤣. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍
