Corbett Wild Camping - Beinn An Lochain
zhlédnutí 231Před 3 lety
Wild camping on one of Arrochars finest Corbetts, if not one of Scotland’s finest, Beinn An Lochain. Sitting at 901 meters Beinn An Lochain just misses out on Munro status, infact it was included in Sir High Munro’s original Munro tables but recent calculations put the summit just short of Munro status. Don’t let this fool you, it’s still one fine wee summit! liam_campbelll

Cracking ascent man, looking forward to going up tomorrow hahaha
Amazing mate!!! 😍
Great vid!! Wish I was following you up, emphasis on the following 😅 looked like an interesting lead!
Just my opinion, I think many of us would prefer the footage at normal speed because we want to feel immersed in the climbing experience as much as possible, as if we’re right there with you. Speeding up the video prevents the audience from having a visceral experience, reminding us that we’re just on onlooker. The first-person perspective naturally evokes a sense of realism, so I think it’s best to not mess with that. Anyways, thank you so much for the video. I appreciate you for sharing :)
Do you have any recommendations for locations where a beginner can go to work on the basics of ice climbing without getting too technical(not a ice climbing gym, but actual outdoor locations you think would be good for a beginner)? I would really appreciate any locations as I am new to ice climbing in Scotland and don't have much experience with where to go.
I'd say Coire an t'Sneachda in the Cairngorms. It's like the Stanage Edge of winter climbing. Short, easy & generally safe approach & descents. Quite a few Grade Is & an assortment of Grade IIs to get you going. Won't need many ice screws, if any. Cairngorm granite often takes nuts at the side of the gullies, take a set of asymmetric nuts like DMM offsets as they really help wih flared cracks.
That route was my first Grade III lead. The only bit I recognise is at 1:14, setting off up the wall. I recall only 1 or pieces of rock gear per pitch, no ice solid enough for screws. Belays were solid single nut placements. It was so cold my thumbs seized up!
Watching this I was hoping you would change up the edit so it wasn't just ffwd downshots. Some pauses with pans round the coire, no music and normal speed climbing with actual sound would make this a much better video.
That's some incredible footage! the shots with climbers really gets the scale across.
Unfortunately the drone footage means not only do i have a thing buzzing around when I’m out on the hills but i get cruddy music watching the video too
Bonnie Scotland 😅
Little tip when you are removing screws, Bang them off something (I usually use my head) so that the ice comes out. If you don't the ice can freeze on the inside and you wont be able to place it again.
Sure I can be seen at the start of the video hitting the screws off the ice a few times before popping them on my harness. A few seasons ago I swapped onto lead at the belay and took the rack off my partner, headed up the pitch couldn’t get a single screw in because they were frozen full😂 wasn’t a happy bunny. By the last few screws on this route not one fk could be given as it was that cold and knew they weren’t getting placed again as I was getting to fk off the hill😂
Quality video mate 👌
Thanks for the video Liam. The drone footage around the Ben is class and the drone footage of the start of the climb into Comb Gully is so cool. My mate and I started winter climbing about 3 years ago, we have no mentors or experienced heads to keep us right and No.2 Gully was our first climb. As two rookies, we had some trouble finding it, pair of eejits!... This drone footage would have been great for us to scope out the upper topography of the mountain. Am looking at your footage now and using it to help pick out and visualise some of the other grade 2 - 3 stuff from the guidebook that we want to try this winter. Thanks again, class stuff altogether!
Awesome video, looks really fun (but cold!). Went hiking with you years ago (Beinn a'Chaorainn and Beinn Tealach in Winter) and you've done some amount of climbing since! Must be nearly done with the Munros now? Nice work!
How you doing mate? You still on insta? Drop me a message if you are👍
@@liam_campbelll I'm good man, nearly done with the Munros - just the Cuillins, Fisherfields and some Torridon ones left. Hoping to finish this year. I deleted my personal Instagram unfortunately (long story!).
Must be 40 years since i did this
The second looks a bit frantic
😂 coldest I’ve ever been couldn’t wait to get off the fkn hill
One of the most beautiful places in the world 🏴
Some tough climbing there mate, brilliant, atb Mick 👍
Just got some bandits and waiting to get out and use them next month on the Ben as staying in the CIC hut for four days. What’s your verdict on them compared to petzl quarks etc ?
I’ve been using the Bandits for 4 years man and can’t complain really. Feel the picks are a bit soft though.
@@liam_campbelll cheers buddy, for the money they look fantastic and looking forward to getting out in a few weeks. Great videos by the way and conditions are looking good at the moment.
If ever there were videos making me feel 'yup, I could never have done that!' Your videos are them. But it nice to see the process like this since I've never had the experience. Amazing climb 👍🏻👍🏻
slightly off topic but how did you find the bandit Ice axes as i have just bought a set and looking forward to using them on the Ben next month ?
That looked horrific for a grade iv😮
Just shitty conditions mate, typical Scotland
5:13 a piece of pro. lol.
sick
Nausea inducing camera work kills this video Stone dead, the music doesn't help either.
Where's your video pal?
@@fundorgon I don't need to post videos, I just go out and concentrate on climbing. I don't need attention.
@@fuckinellitsraymo Good for you, glad for you and all that but you don't need to trash this guy for posting a vid that's as far as I can see, a video of just him and his mates celebrating the same thing you love doing. If you don't like his vid fair, that's literally subjective anyway but just close the video and move onto the billions of other pieces of free content instead of wasting the energy to shit on someone for no reason.
@@fundorgon And who are you? Their guardian angel?..... I said the camera work was nauseating... so what, go and mind your own business.
@@fuckinellitsraymo I'm just trying to be cool to the guy putting something out there for us to enjoy, typing takes no calories of effort so why not be nice? Whereas you were just shitting on his content. Easy.
Preferred to watch at half speed, hate the swinging views at high speed. You're brave to climb it in that condition!
Brilliant drone footage. Don't know how you do it but looks amazing.
Jesus Christ Danny give him some slack
Ooft.. that looked tough... Good shift!
Good video but shame about the music ! What happened to the recorded sounds ? People want to listen to the sound of winter climbing not music !
Headcam section is better at 0.5 speed 😁 I would like to see it at normal speed! I'm hoping to lead some IIIs there next week if conditions hold up. I can 2nd grade IV & I'd like to do that climb some time.
Great work managing the cameras and batteries! Looks like you got pretty tricky conditions for climbing as well
Wonderful video mate. You make the drone work seems effortless when I know the amount of faff that must have been involved :-) Keep them coming. Truly appreciated by those of us looking for great videos of the north face….
Wow. Definitely not for the faint hearted. Superb little video. Seeing something I know I'll never do. Nice one!
I can sympathise with the frustrating conditions.. you put up a good fight!
Amazing
excellentyyy
Cheers ma man
Brilliant bro! 👌🏼
Cheers ma man!
Great video, Liam! I've just subscribed! 😄
That was great Liam 👍
Boss drone footage Liam 👌 👌 👌
Great footage, nice quality and very informative
Beautiful countryside and cool drone shots! Nicely done.
The frame at 1:13 - 1:18 is perfection man!
Dang mand you are extremely brave. Even easy Ice i'm not so sure I would be willing to Solo anything. We spent 4 days in Ouray Colorado ice climbing last week. I just posted day 1 to my CZcams channel. It sure is a amazing sport.
Minted 👌🏼
Quality mate
