    AN EPIC CLIMB IN THE HEAT UP TO THE TOP OF THE BUCKLE, I PITCHED OFF THE SUMMIT AS THATS A BIT TOO ROCKY, HAD A QUICK WANDER UP TO STOB DEARG TO REVISIT, I LAST CLIMBED IT ABOUT 6 YEARS AGO, CHECK OUT MY VIDEOS TO WATCH THAT.. THE COMING DOWN WAS THE HARDEST BIT, ONCE OVER THE INITIAL DROP ITS OK AND ALL STEPS HEADING DOWN. ONLY ABOUT 1.36 MILES TO WHERE I PITCHED, BUT VERY ENJOYABLE AND A NICE ESCAPE.. APOLOGIWS FOR THE LENGTH OF THIS BUT IT WAS HARD NOT TO FILM...

    What a positively civilised video that was Andy. Those time lapses were outstanding. Shame about the traffic cone 😞. And what a view to wake up to. A very humbling video this one. Being in surroundings like that sure does make you appreciate being able to get out and wildcamp in what can only be described as, well I have no words that can do it justice. Just stunning.

    This was one bloody long video! Thought I’d fast forward through most of it, but I can honestly say I never did, wasn’t even tempted. However, I started watching it last night and at 22.10 Matron came into my room and said I had to go to sleep (Care Homes are like that). I’ve now finished watching the adventure the following afternoon. How I miss Scotland, such an amazing impressive place. Heading through Glen Coe (is that the right spelling?), never fails to astound me. Never been up the Herdsman but hats off to you for this beautiful wild camp. Enjoyed the hard slog up and then those views from the summit WOW! Still plenty of snow on the Ben. Couldn’t believe how many people were roaming about. In my day we never faffed about with water filters, just boiled the brown liquid for five mins and all would be well. They say you are never too old to learn a new trick, well I learnt a new trick. The loose tying of the boot laces is a brilliant idea around camp. Funny what music people listen to and find entertaining: Stone Roses, Bloody Guns & Roses, it’s all a loud mind blowing noise to me! Still each to their own. Like you, I’ve no interest how many subscribers I have and do these films to look back on as I do now in the Old Peoples Home. Wished I’d not deleted so many of my old mountain videos but what’s done is done. The sound quality on this film was outstanding, good to know you’ve got a decent mic. Would have liked a view down towards Skyfall or even a shot where 007 and M stood at the side of the road. Cheers Andy and this was without doubt a FIVE STAR FILM ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Can’t believe you’ve actually got two thumbs down from those Wankers! PS can I watch this film in 4K on my old black and white telly? NO REPLY REQUIRED ANDY, YOU HAVE FAR TOO MANY PEOPLE TO REPLY TO. SIT BACK AND CHILL OUT!

    Magnificent Andy, its a well trodden path for me BUT.....never with a mahoosive backpack, day trips only. I'd imagine that having your house on your back would be a game changer at the coire head. Biden Nam Bian is utterly magnificent as well BTW .......glad you enjoyed your trip, I enjoyed yer vid.
