I've just come across your CZcams Channel because this Glencoe adventure caught my eye. It's strange watching this in my Glasgow flat but great to be transported back to one of my favourite places in Scotland. Always inspiring to see a young guy like yourself enjoying the outdoors and taking its challenges in your stride and you've shown the area and stunning views off magnificently. Sadly, it's been many years since my mountaineering days but I still get up to Glencoe now and then and do some low level walking. Thanks a lot and keep up the good work.
You've reminded me of my very first camping trip, which was on the opposite side of the river to Lagangarbh Hut, down in the bottom of the valley, there. I was ten, and sharing a tent with my 20 year old uncle; the others occupied by my 29 year old uncle and his wife - who had arranged the trip; and my parents - who joined us at the weekend. Just a wee bit of flat grass next to the river, which had stepping stones across it to reach the hut - round of the back of which had been designated our toilet area; and we were posh campers indeed, travelling in my older uncle's 1960s Jaguar, with its curved wings, comfortable leather seats and period wooden dashboard! My first visits to Fort William - via Kinlochleven because the Ballachulish Bridge was only half-built at the time; Oban (in heavy rain with no view - not even of Kerrera) ; Ben Cruachan Power Station; a swim in the freezing River Coupall and a walk from Kingshouse to Blackwater Reservoir, all occurredon that trip. And we were driven out by quantities of midges that I'm pleased to say I've never seen again since - there was a solid coat of them an inch thick, covering absolutely everything. It was like a Stephen King novel! (Mind you, I had a delayed reaction to them and got a fortnight off school five weeks later, so it wasn't all bad!!) So, I totally get why you're so fond of that much loftier view. Thanks for the memory.
Memories made to last forever down to last blade of grass
oh to be ten again with the mountains at my feet ❤️🏴

Sticky rib pot noodle with a v
View, sounds class man hahaha
Can’t beat it 😂😂
Great vid and channel. I get he likes pot noodle and haribo, but I wish he'd give himself something more rewarding like a grass fed sirloin with a little army bbq or something.. noodles good for carbs I guess, but man what a place to have some worthy heavenly food after a trek.
Yeh I need to up my food game. I’m just lazy I think😂😂
Never disappoints great video and fantastic views cheers !
Wow,that is a joke,the view of that mountain is awesome .stay safe

Just left Glen etive this morning wish I was back there already ❤ 🏴
It's on our doorstep... So incredible.
Another great video. But your love of the mountains is also very engaging.
Another great video. Glen Coe is definitely a stunning place to visit and explore.
Fantastic views
Funny, just did the WHW this end of april. This place really felt special. Def need to cartrip Scotland to be able to do those sorts of Camps :) Nice video again. Atb, Sam.
Yeh it’s a special place, hope you enjoyed the WHW mate. It’s one I’ve still got to do
Stunning views, stunning narration and stunning music. Thank you for this journey. Currently ordering in new gear for some trips I want to do in winter. Will be taking the car and would be grateful of any recommendations that are short walks from the car.
Yeh this one’s great and a rlly short walk from the car. The hidden valley another rlly good one that’s not too far. You could also take the ski lift, great views up there and not much effort involved 😂😂
@@ScottishSummiteer many thanks for taking the time out to reply. Decided the tent I want is the naturehike cloud peak. Just waiting on a couple of stents to go in and I'll be good as new and excited to get out there. Thanks for the inspiration.
