    • @TheSoloSummiteer
      @TheSoloSummiteer  Před 9 měsíci +1

      @proffessorclueless cheers for that👍. I think the simple fact is that far more people prefer the drama type videos of storms, heavy rain, etc. Every other video seems to have that in the title these days (hence the title of my latest video 😜). Or, watching people cooking, drinking or just messing about in tents. For me it’s all about my love for the mountains. They are the stars of the show. The true mountain people understand this but there just isn’t as many of them around I guess 🤷‍♂️

    Congrats Shaun! Ben Lomond was my first munro summit when I got back into hillwalking after over a decade away from Scotland and it couldn't have been more perfect. Beautiful weather, a perfect cloud inversion as a sea of clouds as far as I could see with only the tops of the nearby munros sticking out. I did the reverse route of what you did and the clouds started to vanish as I started down the ptarmigan ridge and got stunning clear views of Loch Lomond all the way to my car. Got me right back into it! In that area I've only summit camped in the arrochar alps but I'd love to wake up to the views from Ben Lomond sometime
