- BEN NEVIS CMD ARÊTE ROUTE
A thoroughly enjoyable and epic hike up to the summit in some challenging conditions showing the CMD arête route and what to expect. It requires some fitness and effort as it’s a long way up there but the views make up for it (I didn’t get any views😂).
Enjoy your adventures and minimise your risks
All love and happiness
Al and Blue

that brokoli looks a bit small t hang a hammonk from lol
😂😂😂 it’s a lightweight hammock.
I'll drop you both a separate treat. So well deserved Al & Blue .
My daughter is starting Duke of Edinburgh. One sentence of advice mate. I’m fighting fashion, colour etc.
dont forget to buy blue a treat
As a 60+ year old lifelong resident of nearby Fort William who has conquered 'The Ben' five times in my much younger days (including via the waterslide from Glen Nevis up to the arete), I thoroughly enjoyed your unique and enthralling footage, helped of course by the star of the show, Blue. The weather conditions you faced were unfortunate, if filmed recently, as we've been blessed by unseasonably decent weather for several weeks now, but your unmistakable joy on witnessing the immensity of the north face was genuine and priceless, even if the view was partially obscured by clouds. I have viewed hundreds of hours of video clips of the north face and CMD arete, but rarely have I witnessed such passion as when the truly awesome sight came into your view. Your summit shelter litter clear-up and wise safety advice are both commendable, but the joy of the footage lies in your ability to convey your sense of enjoyment in your surroundings.
Yes I was hoping to get the drone out in lovely conditions to show the place off properly but the atmospheric conditions still make a decent video and more the really of the place😂. Thanks for appreciating the video mate. ATB👍
Wow, this brought back memories. My son David offered to take me up to Scotland for my 60th birthday and we decided to do this route. We had two dogs at the time, a golden and a brown Labrador. It poured down for most of the way up and was really heavy on the way on from the split in the path by the lochan. We sheltered at the mountain hut for lunch and it was still pouring. I decided to wimp out and not do the arrette mainly because I didn’t know it and was worried about the dogs so I went back to the tourist route. David (pig headed as he is) decided to do the arrette and carried on. I had to recross the river which was really swollen so took off my boots. The dogs came with me and I put my boots back on. About to start off again and Truffle (the golden one and also pig headed) had disappeared. Looked round and round and finally looked up at David who was a speck in the distance on the way up and there was Truffle racing up after him (scary moment when I thought we had lost her). Anyway I retraced my steps to the tourist path and we all got to the summit within 5 minutes of each other. It also turned sunny - brilliant day out. Loving the videos - sorry the comment is a bit long.
Wow what an adventure that luckily turned out well. You made the best decision as you need to be confident in those places and having the dogs definitely would increase the risk. You all did well as the wet conditions make it a hard place to be. I’m glad you didn’t lose the dog 🥰
this man has never made a bad video! loving it as always looks incredible
😂 thanks mate😊
100% agree
@@BUSHMANandBLUE your videos are so awesome. You dont let bad weather put you off which is nice but youre also very safety conscious which is awesome, and blue makes it even better.
When there’s nowt on tv you can count on Al & Blue to come up trumps. Geez! What a film. Awesome job you two👍🐾❤️
Thanks Paul. TV sucks anyway now a days. Bring back 4 channels👌👍😂
I know everyone on here ( that goes for all CZcamsrs) do not get the recognition about the walk bys that you do, but don't fret, we all appreciate them and the views you give come rain or shine are noted. So thanks from me and everyone else 👌.
It was an epic video and we know you put all that you could into it, i/we as in your viewers know or try to know what an effort you give for our viewing pleasure. Immense views, lovely Blue dog and an amazing adventure made your video great to watch 👍
Appreciated mate. I do put a bit of effort in life but it’s always worth it😉👍👍👍
Agreed
Well said 😁
Totally agree and well said 👏
You and Blue never fail to deliver Al and kudos for cleaning up the shelter. Its disgusting that some people think it's OK to leave their crap in there!😠 Yet another epic adventure from my #no1youtuber 👏👍
Thanks mate I’m glad you enjoy these adventures 😬👊
Reeked of piss last time I popped me head in, stayed in my ultra quasar in a hoolie, stood up to it perfectly.
What an adventure and views to take your breath away. Ben Nevis North Face was a real treat.
She is a beast of beautiful proportions. Well done chap.
blue really is the most incredible dog. SO intelligent and amiable. also - the colour of the brown bracken against the grey rock in this are stunning.
He definitely is! Worth training a dog well so they are easier to handle👍
What a great video. Your disgust when you got to the shelter was so real and understandable. Too bad some people just can’t appreciate and honor what is given to all of us. You are a great role model for this great medium.
Thank you mate! I just wish these others had some basic care in life.
That doggy is sooo clever 🥰
Thank you so much for sharing you n Blue"s amazing Ben Nevis Summit journey. Was sad that you made it to the summit only to find the Shelter in such a filthy state. You did a sterling job cleaning up. 💜🙏 God always keep you n Blue safe on your adventures. 🙏🌌🌎🇬🇧🏴
Thanks Liz 😊
Absolute class Al. Too many highlights to comment on but suffice to say it's another top top effort. Thanks for taking me and the kids along for the ride mate.
Stay safe and well,
Adge
Thanks guys I’m glad you watch as a family👌👊👊👊
You’re both amazing, I laughed out loud at blue nodding off in the shelter 😀
He was adorable 🥰
Oh my!! Wow. The trust you and blue have in each other is incredible. I wonder how many dogs have walked that route. Not many I bet. This was awesome.
I was scared to death when you crossed the arete my heart was in my throat. I was so worried about Blue. I was watching him slip a couple times and thought he might get going too fast and then slip. Oh NO ! The trash in the Summit Hut was disgusting. When one person does it, they all think they have permission to follow suit.
Thank you very much.
So happy you both made the summit safely ❤
Thanks mate. The arete isn’t too bad in dry conditions but a place to be careful 👍. Litter bugs need a word with themselves
Great video Al, huge well done for cleaning the shelter. This one was one of your best. I spend too much time teaching people in the hills instead of enjoying them myself, I need some me time to connect back with the mountains. Thanks again mate.
Yes I enjoy being out in it and sometimes I need to put the camera down and have those moments to myself. Cheers👍👍👍
Lovely to see a well trained and intelligent dog doing stuff most people couldn’t do.
He’s a great companion for it😉👍
@@BUSHMANandBLUE I’m a Brit in Cape Town. Your vid’s make me miss home. Shame you can’t take him here…..Cederberg….kalahari…..wild coast….etc (but still miss home)
Blue with his little backpack on. He’s so cute!🥹 Thanks for this vid.
another great vid, takes me back 50 plus years
I have to say - brilliant - had us on the edge of our seats. You absolutely love your dog, so do the rest of us, thanks for sharing.
Thanks. It was quite an adventure 😬
This was incredible to watch.I hope one day you get even more recognition and your own programme on TV, you deserve it.
Thanks mate. It’s hard getting seen on CZcams so I need everyone to spread the word👊
Gotta say, you own THE most amazing, an gorgeous dog, you are so so lucky to have a companion like Blue - he is a star 👌
Thanks! I can proudly say I know🥰
Great video really enjoyed it
Did this route a few years ago in summer conditions. Really rewarding and stunning route up to Nevis. So many ways to go up. If you want lots of scrambling and big exposure there's the various ridges, if you want walking there's good routes, the CMD route is somewhere in the middle of these. Another excellent video along with your Lake district videos. Preparation for trips like this and actually executing it all, need a lot of time and effort and that's without the extra factor of filming and editing it all. Most of us couldn't be bothered with that when out on the route itself. There's some really good you tubers out there capturing trips to the UK mountains and this channel is right up there with the best of them.
Thanks mate much appreciated. I’ll always be filming my adventures wherever I may end up. It does take extra effort but I know I’m helping people which inspires me to carry on 👍👍👍
Blue is an absolute hero. He does really absolutely everything no one ever would do and he enjoys it. Super dog in my world. Btw, aren't you sometime worried the wind will be too much for him?
No the wind would take me before him as he has a low centre of gravity and 4 points of contact. He is awesome👍
@@BUSHMANandBLUE Besides, Blue is an Angel. 🙏🥀🌎
Looks like the happiest fittest dog on planet gorgeous blue eyes.
He definitely is up there👍👍👍
Magnificent 😮
Yes mate 👏 can't wait for this one worth the wait 👍
Absolutely brilliant vlog, I always feel like I'm on an adventure. I can't get over how Blue is always working out a route to take, clever dog. That looked scary on the ledge with the drop either side. Stunning scenery shots from the drone too.
Thanks pal. I generally let Blue make his own decisions regarding his path. He’s not daft👍
@@BUSHMANandBLUE That's one smart collie you have their Al 🐾💙👍
i like your cap! 🌈 big fan of blue! what a good boy! 💙
Wow just epic 🏴😊
This was phenomenal to watch! Blue crossing those rivers 😳 what an amazing companion he’s so clever, what a dog 💪🏼
Well done this was fantastic even though I sat with my heart in my mouth 🤣
😂 Im glad you enjoyed it👍
Great video. All credit to you for clearing all that litter. It annoys and puzzles me that people who who enjoy mountains would want to leave such a mess behind them
Yes there are some strange people out there 👍
The state of that shelter was disgusting, it's people like that who have made wild camping an issue for a lot of people. An absolute credit to you for cleaning up, you're an amazing person. Loved the video
Thanks buddy I just hope that others might do the same 👍👍👍
Bro, Blue is an amazing companion. You guys make a great team :)
Truly stunning! I have had Border Collies in my life for over a decade, yet they never cease to amaze me with their natural skill and love to work.I can say the same for your adventures… except for the ‘decade’ part. Might be time to teach Blue to fetch the camera after your walk-bys, which, however could lead to a lot of broken cameras so, maybe not. Sorry, your legs will just have to appease us
😂my legs appreciate the training. Collies are definitely a hardy dog that thrive out there doing a job. They can go crazy without the stimulation.
That was well worth the wait bud!
What an epic adventure and in such challenging conditions too, and blue just takes it all in his stride.
Leave no trace is a real issue at the moment and fair play for cleaning up after every one else, top bloke. Stay safe bud.
Cheers Kyle hopefully others might tidy up too to help out👊
Only Scotland- so beautiful
You’re dog Blue is amazing
As you said, wow, just wow. Epic. It took some nerve walking that ridge in those conditions. And as for Blue, what an utterly brilliant dog. Cheers Al. ATB
It wasn’t too bad but I enjoyed taking it slow and being present in the weather. Blue is👌
That was absolutely incredible Al! What an amazing adventure. I felt dead nervous when you were on that ridge, I had to look away a few times. You and Blue are legends in my eyes, even more so for removing all the grot bags rubbish 😡 OMG so infuriating. As grim as it seemed, nothing yet has equaled the grimness of the cave camp 🤢 Loving your channel, and especially loving Blue dog 🐕 and those piercing blue 💙 eyes 👀 of his. Thank you for sharing 🙏 💙❤
Thanks Keren. It’s quite an adventure along the arete but we were quite comfortable and definitely not nervous😂. The cave camp was the worst 😂😂😂
Amazing. Thank you for sharing this experience with us all.
I'm still dining out on the one time I climbed Helvellyn but after watching your videos I'm going to pipe down! Thank you for your channel and for appreciating this beautiful planet we have to the fullest. And of course thank you for sharing the Majestic Blue with us 🥰.
That was definitely worth waiting for. The views of the north face were absolutely stunning. Even more dramatic as it drifts in and out of view through the clouds. Your joy of the outdoors is infectious, so much so that I have recently purchased my first 1 man tent with the intent on trying out wild camping. Just need a bigger rucksack and a decent down sleeping bag. Anyway. Amazing film as always. Your drone skills and editing skills are top notch by the way. Keep up the good work.
Thanks mate and it’s awesome that you’ve got a tent sorted. Through summer you only need the basics so definitely get out for a camp. 👊
Epic again Al. The majesty of the mountain peeking through the cloud was amazing. That boy is something else. So fearless and capable 💪 He would follow you through hell mate, and probably still be 30yds in front and wanting to play 😂🐶❤
😂 yes he’s the leader though and I know if he can do it with ease then I should be able to.
❤ all these videos.
That arête freaked me out! Watched through my fingers 😮
Waited for this! Biggest mountain in the uk and loads of stories of people going up in shorts, trainers, jeans and no food etc. Doing Ben Nevis next week after completing the west highland way fingers crossed!
Cool mate hopefully you get some clear weather👌
Absolutely ridiculous, we once passed a woman and three kids heading up blencathra in lake District, she had high heels on, carrying an umbrella!!!!
Make the most of it Al, life is short, I look back to when I could do this, don't think I would try it now at 68 but have loads of memories even so xxxx
Amazing!!!
How wide was it on the top, just curious??? Bit like striding edge????
2nd!
👍🖐️
Thanks for your great content again. What a mess at the hut. you made it so much more welcoming for everyone at the hut. Lazy gits
Bravo vous êtes formidable ♥️🏴♥️👍
You clearly know what you are doing on a technical level, incredibly well skilled. I have mentally garnered and quantified risk over most of your videos. I'm not a climber, but I trust your knowledge. I have been singled out in your past videos because i had concerns in relation to your dog Blue. Before other commentors say "Here we go again", and "Forget the naysayers", I have to wade in. There are some videos where your in complete synergy with your climb, and to be completely honest watching your videos there are only two that I would call into question, this is one of those two. Maybe there are other risquee videos but i'm not one to dissect and critique your content, your a grown lad and you clearly have the mentality and capability to cast your own judgement on a situation. In this video you risked your dogs life multiple times mate, and you can dress it many ways but your sacrificing content over your dog. What would you have done if Blue had slipped away while you were filming your summit walk? What would you have done if Blue didn't land the river cross that you filmed? I think it's important man, and I could give a shit for anyone that responds otherwise. Sooner or later something WILL give mate.
It’s an interesting debate and your points are valid, but I feel it comes down to risk and reward. Blue was not dependent on Al in decision making nor was he following while negotiating unacceptable risk, Blue was at times happy to lead the way. Bear with me on this, but if Blue was able to make an informed advanced decision to go out with his owner that day , would he of gone or stayed at home? I believe he would choose to go. 4 legs up there are better than two and the camera presents the ridge as more extreme than in person. Blue appears to value his life experience with Al, so even if it ended prematurely, it would of been a life well spent.
Just read up on border collies and what they were bred for. He is not a handbag dog with no experience which I think you are suggesting. I completely trust his judgement and I usually follow the route he chooses as it is the best one. I’d also trust him more than most humans on two legs. Sooner or later something will give pal but it won’t be our sense of adventure and the pleasure we get from it. I tell you that for nowt’
I hope you did not let Blue watch a sunrise ? The sun will burn his eyes. Might be best to just keep him indoors and only use the garden, fully fenced of course.
In fact maybe best having a cat, oh no claws are sharp...
Keep it up Al &Blue, not just a great watch but in every video you try to educate on mountain safety and the importance of having the correct equipment and knowledge to use it.
Fantastic 👍❤
😂😂😂
@@BUSHMANandBLUE Thanks for the reply and love mate. I don't need to read up on Collies, I have had one for 10 years and he's my rock. We go fell walking together in the lakes and I have videos on my other CZcams account Curious Cumbria, even descending Barrow Fell at 455 metres I had him on his lead. I'm not purposefully trying to hate on your videos because they are fantastic, i'm amazed you don't have more subs but I see other CZcamsrs like "Scotland's Mountains" that deserve a ton more recognition. I don't appreciate other commentors being snidey, i'm being respectful I think, but this is the internet. Worries me slightly that you say that something will eventually give but I think I knew that anyway. I don't know, you say your seeing people in summer clothing doing these climbs. I'm not concerned about you but idiots might watch this and think they can replicate, but i'm howling at the moon anyway mate. I just think your favouring views over responsibilty, if something does happen to you or your dog, which it will eventually, I hope you own it and warn others using your channel.
OMG you and Blue are just so wholesome 😊😊
Awwwwwww thanks. 😊
Another master piece, i love your relationship with Blue, you seem like a lovely person, and this is COMING from an irish man.
😂 life’s to short for any negativity
This guy is on a different level.Even takes his dog with him.SAS, RMC all roled into one.
😂😂😂
Absolutely EPIC :) don't know how you n Blue managed CMD in that weather ☁️ wow respect ☘️
It was strangely quite relaxing as it was quiet. 👍
Blue was amazing. What a vid.
To think Al has done that climb in slippery conditions, wind & a pack on, absolutely amazing. And don’t forget Blue managing very well, too 💕 Very very well done both of you.
Slow and steady and it’s not too bad. The weight to carry is hard on the skinny legs😂
Ye great and Lucy Orangina was up there too, amazing. Thanks again.
Blue is such a star 💛💛💛
Your enthusiasm is infectious…
😊 just enjoying the outdoors
Brilliant filming mate. I definitely agree on the steep climb from the hut to the cmd. I've done it in similar conditions and it was soul destroying 😂👌👌
Yes it’s a tough and slow one especially because you are tired by the time you get there👍
I agree!!! Thanks for caring!!! Love the video!!
Thanks Lisa.
Hi Bushman & Blue .. 5 Star✨✨✨✨✨ Video again Loved It .. Blue must be the best ever mountain climbing Dog on tis Earth and you my fellow YORKSHIREMAN Makes me proud to be a YORKSHIRE MAN TOO , Well done again .
Well done👏👏👏 on cleaning the mess in the shelter after all the pigs 🐷who left it in that state ..

Thanks Tom 👍. Spreading the Yorkshire happiness around the UK and hopefully the world.
Thank you so much for your thoroughly beautiful videos. You’ve helped me feel hope and excitement for the first time in a very long time. ❤❤
Angel Blue
. 💜💙🇬🇧🏴🙏🙏🥀🥀
Respect to you for clearing up the emergency shelter - and youve earned yourself another subscriber for that alone never mind the excellent video!
Welcome mate👊. There are plenty of decent adventures in my back catalogue 👍
That is a spectacular place
Blue is a billy goat!
Brilliant! I've traversed the arete in summer, it really is exposed isn't it. Hat's off to you for doing it in those conditions. Blue, what a dog! The musical box lullaby while he nodded was a truly comic touch.
😂 thanks mate. You’ll appreciate the video more after doing the arete yourself
You are such a top lad you’re energy is amazing if only there was more people like you .. watching the doggo falling asleep as you have a good old rant was class 😂 love it.. keep being you man true legend my love to you two ❤
Thanks buddy 👍. That dog is awesome and such a funny moment 🥰
Another great vid m8. ppl that leave rubbish on the mountains make my piss boil. Well done for taking it down. top man.
Absolutely heartbreaking to see the summit shelter in such a state . I think you summed up them folks responsible perfectly Al. Well done for clearing their mess up. 👏 🚮🏔💙🌏
Cheers Steve I think it might send a message to both sides not to litter and to help tidy up when you can👊
That’s one amazing dog
Great soundtrack/music selection for the drone footage at approximately 8:00 minute mark! And superb editing!
I do try my best and I’m glad you appreciate it😬
Glad you got to see the mighty gas! You should have gone in the away end and have some right banter!
Ace 👍 Thank you.
Impressed with the walk, more impressed with the clean up! Well done sir!!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks Dave. Someone has to do it!
Brilliant 👍👍💪💪🏿
You are the best
You just have me smiling and grinning like a Cheshire Cat..
I absolutely love your videos..
You really take me back to what is good in this world..
Thankyou so very much..
I give the occasional wow when I see the drops either side of you both..
So glad you’re enjoying the videos mate😬😬😬
Epic!
Thank you.Amazing ......
Totally get how you feel when admiring all the beauty that surrounds you. It's like you never want to leave. Love your videos. Stay safe. You are so blessed to be able to follow your passion. Blue, you are the epitome of how we all want to live!
Well I’m hopefully stepping towards that life👍. Thanks mate.
I loved this, start to finish, very inspiring, thank you very much.
Blown away by this adventure, you and blue are amazing and brave, I was on the edge of my seat watching you both, your so passionate about what you do and the environment, i felt your anger in that filthy hut 🛖 some peaple just don't care, glad there is peaple like you that do, I watched this yesterday at 3am as I was woken by a panic attack so sat in lounge with a decaff coffee, I knew watching you and blue would take my mind off what was happening and it did, many many thanks 😊 ❤ p.s Ben nevis is awesome 👌
Thanks Fran much appreciated and I’m glad I can bring you some calm. A few people have sent me photos since if the hut in even worse conditions 🤷🏻♂️. Some people!
Loved this one Bushman and Blue, thks for an exciting watch,
Fair play for cleaning up the shelter,
Blue has a bit of at My goat in his jeans, no fear at all!!
Thks again,
G
Yes Blue never moans and just gets on with it😉👊
Your dog is simply amazing. No other word for it.
That he is!
Found myself smiling, watching the video especially as I listened to your enthusiasm and passion as the mountain appeared between the clouds. Have to say that I too felt your disgust at the state and mess fellow outdoor enthusiasts left behind. Staggering. Keep the films coming - they are just great.
Thanks Emma. I’m glad people get a feel for these places through my videos. It’s quite hard to show on film. I love it!
What an epic adventure! Love your mindset and attitude. You are so laid back and relaxed but providing great safety advice. I'm working my way through all your films. You're a huge inspiration sir!
Brill mate I’m glad you’re enjoying them. Just being positive and showing that I’m hoping will inspire others👍👍👍
I love you Blue.. 🥰🥰🥰
Me too🥰
Crazy incredible! My heart left my chest more than a couple of times! Wow!
Absolutely epic that Al, them conditions were proper rough, and them ridge walks look sketchy as hell with the wind etc, Blue taking it all in his stride as usual 😀 ,just would like to say thankyou for all the time, planning and hard work you put into your videos, yours and other channels inspired me to video my own walks etc, As to get the quality of your videos like yours is definitely not easy, thanks for another epic watch, atb Mick 👍
Cheers chief! Yes you’ll appreciate it more if you are filming a bit yourself. 👍
What a day!!!! Give Blue a pat for me!
Hi Al Trev here.. definitely No1 channel to watch, loved it...Top vid ..Top man...TOP DOG. Keep up the good work. Cheers
Thanks Trev as always 👊👍
Great vid , and thanks for cleaning the hut and showing people how they should behave when outdoors .
Cheers but everyone who watches this channel will already be on the same mindset I think👍👍👍
@@BUSHMANandBLUE I was thinking of the people thinking about getting outdoors and found your video.
Yes hopefully it helps a little👍👍👍
I’ve watched a half a dozen of your uploads and I’ve enjoyed all of them. Keep up the good work…… I’m a big shout out to blue x
Thanks John. Plenty more to watch👍👍👍
Ah, Jesus Christ, mate! Another absolutely cracking video, incredible! You and Blue are awesome, keep up the fantastic work, Al. 😉
Cheers bud. I enjoyed that one even with the disgust of other messy humans.
