Unbelievable scenery up there..Watching your Scottish films has surprised me how different the lansdscape is to the Lakes. You have been to some amazing places.
The drone footage was brilliant.
Keep following the weather👍
Nice one Simon. Glad you enjoyed it and ATB 🙏🏻

So beautifully crafted film! Really makes you want to get out there and into the outdoors. 👏👏 Your content is simply stunning and unique my friend!
Very much appreciated. Glad you enjoyed it. Best wishes 🙏🏻
Cracking spot Dave and great video from you both - fantastic - still do go up this one so I know what to expect :)
Cheers Murray. Looking forward to your video already. ATB 🏴🙏🏻
That's a nice wee hill that Dave , climbed it earlier in the year when we had a weekend in Altandhu , the views are fantastic out to the summer Isles and across to mountains from the summit ❤
Nice one Bruce 🏴👌🏻😎👍
Another great video ... awsome and very motivational.
Love shaun hahahaha
Haha. Cheers 🐑👍😁
Thanks for taking the time to make, edit and share your videos. You said that your views have dropped, is that because of the summer? It’s good you’re doing some Scottish videos, that’ll keep you busy. For me I watch CZcams for the scenery, talking about the camping and the hike, seeing what gear people have and what people eat. It’s been 2 weeks since I last camped in Snowdonia and had a big day doing the Bochlwyd horseshoe and other scrambling and it feels like an age. If it wasn’t for my family commitments I’d be out every weekend 😂 thanks again
Thanks for your comments Ben, much appreciated. Hope you get out soon 👍. ATB
👋 David sorry I’ve missed most of ur channel as u my remember my dad and I went to do the 🇺🇸 14 summit well we did but on summit 11 my dads clamp broke and sadly he fell 198m down but his head was crushed on a rock stick out so I had too cut he’s roped he in the 🏔️ for ever now I did end my trip I’m summit 14 my dad body was recovered and flew back home, I got back last Sunday and his funeral was on Wednesday September 13 2023 all his climbers 🧗♀️ friends came it was nice of them all, I’ve had my time to grieve in 2 weeks I’m in 🏴 for a climb up the ben nice to see ur still do vlogs keep safe look forward to see more❤❤❤❤❤
I was so shocked reading this Emma. So so sad 😞. Your dad sounded like a wonderful man and I’m sure he would be very proud of you. Really hope you’re ok 🙏🏻
@@TheSoloSummiteer yes my dad all ways said if any ting happens the I’ve got to carry on my lifestyle with out him I’ve know this from age 8 so I understood him he was the best dad any one could have all ways there for me never let me down, thank u for ur soft words it means a lot to me. Be safe when go camping and 🙏 again 💕💕💕💕💕
@@emmakimble8946 🙏🏻
Fantastic location 🙂 You helped inspire the location for my first wildcamping video I’ve posted on my CZcams 😁👍
Nice one Paul. Good luck with CZcams 👍
Brilliant vid Dave, some say the view from the Fiddler is the best in Scotland, loved the drone footage. Pity you didn’t do the ridge overlooking Ardmair Bay while you were there, feels like you’re walking in the sky - the scrambling is optional - a bit like Striding Edge looking over the sea
Cheers Mike. Our injuries prevented us from doing more. Glad you enjoyed it 😎👍
Oh Dave you have outdone yourself on this one. I've seen some beautiful views but damn that drone footage, wow just wow that was spectacular. I would give anything to see that in person . Thank you so very much for a look at paradise
Dwayne
Much appreciated Dwayne. Glad you enjoyed it 😎👍
You're giving me vertigo standing near that edge.
What views to see, outstanding.
Another cracking vid Dave !
Big thanks guys 🙏🏻
Wow , Dave that is up there with the best . Absolutely amazing views. Drone footage stunning. Thanks for sharing that
with us . I reckon the Scottish tourist board should be paying for your sandwiches !!! . Also your tittle of the Solo summiteer should it now be +2 ?
Great work again . Don't know how you can top that one .
Haha. Big thanks Paul. A sandwich subsidy would be much appreciated 😁. ATB 🙏🏻
Fantastic Dave 😁.Been looking at a Bivvy or a camp on that one.What a camp spot mate😍Excellent video mate 😁..Love that area ❤️
Cheers
Murchie’s Mountains (Robert)
Nice one Robert. Good luck with the bivi 😎👍
@@TheSoloSummiteer 😁👍
That sunset shot @20:23 is my new screen saver! Hope you don't mind? Terrific pitch, videography and music Dave. Would be interested in learning a bit more about your sports car / motoring sorry mate? If it's not too personal.
Big thanks GM 🙏🏻Always been a petrol head. I lead car tours in the Scottish Highlands for about 10 yrs before my life changed just over two years ago. Don’t have a sports/performance car now, unfortunately. Always a petrol head tho 😎👍
Wow! What amazingly beautiful views from the summit. I'm scared of heights, so seeing you near the edge on the summit in that POV, gave me the heebee geebees!😮😂
Haha. I bet Francis. Glad you enjoyed it tho. Best wishes 😁👍
Shaun and the Awesome Twosome in Scotland ❤. Although I still think it's either Shirley or Hazel 😂
As always stunning views!
Haha. Big thanks ML, from us 3 😁😊🐑 🙏🏻
Fantastic video and spot, was hoping to get up that way next week or up Suilven at least as I'm off work, but weather already looking crap! Gutted :(
Big thanks Peter. Hope the weather improves and you can get up there soon 🤞. ATB
Another great trip Dave. Seeing Stac Pollaidh brought back memories, my second ever Scottish mountain many many years ago. Fantastic and lovely area of Scotland. 👍
Nice one John👍. Evgenia will be releasing a video of our Stac Pollaidh trip a few days later, very soon.
Stunning camp as always Dave, editing on point and views 👌🏼👌🏼
Cheers Liam. ATB bud 👍
Dave. You've had SO MANY awesome trips this year. This was just stunning. That area has been on my list for like 30 years. Stunning shots. 👍👍👍 Also love the Mammut 😂
Cheers John. Yeah, I’m really struggling to keep track of it all. We haven’t stopped. It’s brilliant tho. ATB bud 😎👍
jaw dropping place, beautifully captured as usual. i have to find a way to get up there.
You really should! 😎🏴👍
@@TheSoloSummiteer somehow i made it to suileag bothy, then had to rest for a day and half hehehe. it was fantastic. thanks for the inspiration. ps. the way i made it was a train two buses and a hitchhike from ullapool hehehe
Great footage of mountain scenery, various islands in the distance, Fab campsite near edge. All the best Dave from Philip.
Much appreciated Philip 😎👍
My favourite part of the country- and I’ve been blown away by your content recently.
I’d intended on a wildcamp on the fiddler on my last trip north - but I wrote my car off on one of those little roads!
Will return- so I’m grateful for your vlog as reference.
Brilliant mate!
Bloody hell. Hope you’re ok and can get back up there soon. Glad you’re enjoying my Scotland trips 😎🏴. ATB
Watch out for the deer ticks, be vigilant at all times, 👍
Wise words. Thanks for that 👍
Woa.. epic views Dave 👍
Wow - hoped you’d do ‘The Fiddler’ when I saw you starting on the Scottish mountains videos recently. And you chose such a fantastic day to do it. Absolutely fantastic Dave ❤️❤️❤️
Big thanks 🙏🏻
Kylesku Bridge has to be the most stunning
Looked stunning 👍im not a fan of those round 9inch pegs i much prefer the msr ground hogs the normal and the mini i think the v and y shape just seem to hold better
Cheers Craig. Never had a problem with those pegs. The ground was softer than I anticipated and the wind gusts were ferocious. Sorted in the end tho 😁👍
That was an epic place and beautifully captured as always. What was the brand of wind meter you used? I'm looking for a small one for bikepacking.
Many thanks🙏🏻. It’s a Skywatch anemometer 👍
You not use delta pegs Dave?. I tend to just put them on the guylines, can honestly say never had one pull out and not seen video of anyone else having trouble with them either. Really great footage up there tho. Nice one
There was no problem with the pegs Phil. The ground was softer than I anticipated and the wind gusts were ferocious. I sorted in the end 👍. Glad you enjoyed the vid 🙏🏻
Good video, but it's not in Assynt. Sgur an Fhidleir, Stac Pollaidh, Cul Beag, Cul Mor, are all in the district of Coigach. In a different county from Assynt.
Cheers and thanks for the info. Always learning 🙏🏻
😂😅😊
Always wanted to do this,but as a lone camper,id be a bit apprehensive doing it on my own,just in case anything happened,id be stuffed.
Awesome vid dave 👍
Yeah. Know what you mean. It’s a long way from anywhere. Glad you enjoyed it. ATB 👍
Inspired to go on two organized 14km hikes in November Dave.
What waterproof pants do you recommend please?
That’s awesome David. Berghaus Paclite waterproof trousers 👍
Cracker this one dave, i sold my allak after it slapped me in the face in the gorms (how rude, obviously no manners 😅) - I've only got my absiko lite 1 now but potentially looking at a 3 season lighter tent for next year if you have any suggestions!
Bloody hell Bob. What happened with the Allak? Love mine. I’m fancying a TN Southern Cross 2 but it’s more of a 4 season. My mate Scott loves his Big Agnes Copper Spur.
Living the dream with these Scotland camps mate. Unreal locations to camp in. 🏕️
Much appreciated Rick 🙏🏻👍
