      @TheSoloSummiteer  Před 9 měsíci +1

      I found this Harry -
      The Cobbler, which is also known as Ben Arthur, is an incredible mountain and part of the Arrochar Alps. The name is due to the distinctive rocky summit which supposedly emulates the shape of a cobbler leaning over at work.

      Dvaid has a lot of experience and we have both not bt choice by ended up in 70 mph winds and dealt very well with it. That's why we have invested in the correct gear. X
      I was in mountain rescue for 3 months too and know my stuff. So rest to assure you we judt love the thrill of being exposed but we do it sensibly. We wouldn't go up in terrible conditions for wild weather storm videos lke these other yourubers. We are fair weather campers and we ar eprepaured for bad weather each time.
