  • Only once before have I witnessed the Aurora to the south and that was many moons ago. Thanks to a loud car and occupants waking us up in the camper van, I was able to witness this - a stroke of luck ! lol I am a bit disappointed I didn't spend more time doing proper time lapse sequences but I was aware there were other camper vans around I I didn't want to turn into the one keeping everyone awake - plus my alarm was set for 5am!! The scramble the following day was up a new area in Glen Coe for me and what a belter of a day it turned out to be :)

    Hi Murray. Wow!!! Such beautiful photography both still & video. I particularly love Glen Coe as my name is Paul Coe. I was last in the area (taking part in a national 3 peaks challenge) in 2017. I missed the big light show but I did catch a hint of it, where I live, south of Manchester. I was absolutely gutted that I missed all the bright red, green, purple and blue. I feel like I'm the only one in the world who didn't see it!! Oh well. I particularly love the videos as I'm still recovering from a recent chemo treatment. I lost muscle mass n there's a local hill that's a mere 1100 ft which is a mere foothill. I drag myself up there and from the top, looking across the cheshire plains, there's an unobstructed view all the way to Snowdon dome 90 miles or so away. If I manage to get driving this year one of the 1st things I'll do will be to head to the Glen n get up to the secret Glen! Thanks for the top notch content. Btw, I agree with others that your B & W photography is amazing!

      Hi Paul, hope your recovery is speedy and you get up to Glen Coe once you are able to. The Aurora was amazing and is apparently at its height for the next wee while so hopeful more shows next season :)

    Thank you Murray, Glen Coe is spectacular in your lovely drone footage, mountains here in Scotland are more than equal to any famous mountain range in the world I think, finally managed to catch up with the 11 videos I missed, binged watched them on Wednesday evening 😁 sorry I have no been about to watch as normal, work, broken car, poorly dog and life has got in the way, but light at the end of the tunnel...the Northern Lights were amazing down here, stayed up for hours watching them in the garden, first time we had ever experienced them in real life, it were just brilliant! (will comment on the other ones I have missed to help for the algorithm, but don't feel you need to answer as I know you are busy.) Thanks again for a lovely video.

    Brilliant as always! The drone footage is immense on videos like this,takes things to another level literally. Love your photograph's too,i must admit i have a soft spot for black and white images & those you put up early on were absolutely superb. The younger generation probably wouldn't share my love of b&w images but in my opinion i think they really do take some beating. Thanks as always for all the effort driving/hiking/videoing & editing & then sharing your adventures with all of us,i & many other's really appreciate it.

    Well I'm speechless Murray. Having missed the aurora on the Friday evening, when they were even visible in the middle of the city for the first time I can remember, we then wasted Saturday evening searching for them and not seeing much at all. While we were out I was thinking "if only we were in Glencoe"!
    We love the Clachaig, have stayed in their log cabins many times, and I used to wild camp their back in the day before it got too popular and was banned :)
    Nice to see you on Dinner Time Buttress too, something I've avoided for far too long!

    • @ScotlandsMountains
      @ScotlandsMountains  Před 2 měsíci

      fantastic - I did see a few tents camped not far from the Clachaig - TBH I wasnt aware it was banned but I dont tend to camp down in the Glen very often - usually get up high to avoid the midge !!lol Hope this good weather holds and who knows if we get another mega aurora at some point!!

    Was in Torridon Fri Night and had planned to walk through the night - was shocked to see most of the aurora activity in the South, and didn't expect to see anything in May! Incredible night combined with a Sunrise and ace scramble made it unforgettable. Hoping to do Dinnertime Buttress and a few other scrambles in Glencoe!

    Wow! So spectacular. I had no idea that the Northern Lights could appear in the south until I watched this video. It explains why around midnight on Friday night I was reading in bed, and I suddenly heard six firework explosions. I got out of bed, looked out of the window, wondered what it was all about and grumpily went back to bed. My bedroom faces north. Next day I saw all the glorious photos posted on social media by people living just a few streets away!
    Great footage of Dinnertime Buttress too and lovely photos at the end.

    Great footage Murray and a bold climb for the first summit. Amazing seeing the Northern Lights of which I missed and was staying in KinlochMoidart that evening. I was further down the Glen on the Friday celebrating my 70th birthday on Beinn A Bheiththir which I climb every birthday with a 0 in it. I had rented two cottages in KinlochMoidart so as I can celebrate with my family after climbing the hill. I could kick myself as I went to bed around midnight after a great day and night and missed the lights but the family got fantastic photos. In my 70 years I have never seen the Northern Lights so it would have been the crowning glory of my day. However watched the footage on Mullardoch on one of your videos and this video. Great adventure again really appreciate your efforts.

    Great video Murray and great to see the missus on here... ( I am pretty convinced your day job has skills that cross over into the channel) My ancestors were Scottish so always proud to see the homeland on here. I was up thru there many years ago as good Boy's Brigade member . Starting in Ayr we drove up to Aviemore to camp and hike the Cairngorms, no ski lift up all hiking , lift down only to complete a BB badge. I have hiked many of the Glens of County Antrim in NI.
    Take care on the trails......... Robin, the great great great grandson of Robert the Bruce,.(Lying like a sive)LOL

    wow......amazing. Piece of artwork, thoroughly enjoyed watching this. I agree - I had a week in late April hiking in Glen Affric, etc. When the sun is out and there are no midges....it's fantastic...Scotland at its best.

      Thanks Garry - agreed - when the sun is out in spring and the midge are no where to be seen , then things are good :) I am sure they will be re emerging this weekend though unfortunately!!! lol

    Superb Murray. Excellent. I'm amazed at that drone shot where it's heading into the face of the mountain then rises up while you're marching alone sideways to it! I felt like it was going to crash into it! I got some nice shots of the Aurora from the back garden in EK too, Saturday night I think. Atb...Terry

    I slept through friday night, blissfully unaware, and was gutted seeing photos in the morning.
    I felt worse though for the fella I met packing away his tent at the Linn of Dee on Sunday morning. I asked if he'd seen the aurora and he replied 'is that what it was? my tent lit up but I didn't want to put my book down.'

    A fine looking scramble & family adventure Murray. As for the aurora, missed it anaw 🥴Asleep by 11. It looked good down out way at the Berwickshire coast. Mind you, it looked good everywhere. 😏

    • @ScotlandsMountains
      @ScotlandsMountains  Před 2 měsíci

      Correct statement - some of the photos of the Aurora from away doon south were amazing - even over central Europe- it’s was out on Friday evening too and caught some footage on a sneaky wild camp (today will be spent editing in front of a pc - wish I was in Torridon tho!! - have fun 🤩

    Okay I think technology has a serious vendetta against me Murray, don't know what happened to the comment I left last night. Just came to show the vid to my husband and said ummm, what happened to it? Not only did I point out how this may be my most fav video yet - seriously, the magical light show (thankful for noisy people just this once!), plus the way you panned around and also got the different drone views left me awestruck, but also loved the ambient music you used. The puppers! You're right, looked like you were about to keel over in the morning 😂Wonderful banana eating spot. Was really nice seeing your wife join you this time. Ahhh that pool! if I may, would also like to recommend some other great music: Hammock, Helios, A Winged Victory for the Sullen, Johann Johannsson, Max Richter, This Will Destroy You, and Sigur Ros. Anyway, my husband enjoyed your video as well (he too said "wow" at your views), and I just can't thank you enough, your hard work means so much!
