    Fantastic view. Superbly crafted video. I climbed Slioch in ca. 1982, but such was in the mist. Though I claim to have climbed all the Munros, this one I am not so sure. From memory there were lots of cairns dotted around, and I was not confident that I was at the actual summit.

    • @charliemccartney7055
      @charliemccartney7055  Před rokem

      Hi Malcolm, The one thing about Slioch is that you certainly can't walk passed the summit. I wonder how many turn back after the trig point thinking its the tops when in the clag? Cheers, Charlie

    The mighty Slioch, which I have been fortunate enough to do twice. The second occasion with my eldest brother when went out to the Munro Top, which for him was his compleation of the Tops. I love the basin area before the climb. You captured fantastic 360 degree views, quite stunning. A day to cherish. Loved the video, thank you very much.
