Great stuff, nothing like a boulder, lunch and view. : ) I'm booked up for a week in the Cairngorms in Feb, can't wait. Thanks for posting another top production, greatly appreciated 👍

Hi Murray, You keep coming up with these great memories for me. Id been up here 8 or 9 times in my younger days, summer and winter. Always liked this one, I remember on one occasion I had to crawl on all fours to get off the summit because of the wind. Strange thing I'd been on the summit earlier with very little wind so I went on and climbed Beinn a Chroin. I was feeling great so decided to head back over the summit of An Casteal, big mistake, wind seemed to build from nowhere, lying flat on the summit waiting for a break in gusts so I could eventually crawl off. It was an experience. Thanks again keep up the good work.

Thanks Brian, really appreciate this comment , makes me motivated to keep the vlogs coming during these hard times. Never too sure if people can or want to watch them due to the current circumstances , but my thinking is hopefully it'll provide a bit of the outdoors whilst we a re all indoors at the moment :) Take care, stay safe and thanks for watching ATB Murray

Fair play Murray. Was up there the end of last year on a fine day. Sorry not to see you going through the cleft or over the castle. Did you take it head on or the bypass route to the left? Thought the bypass route was a bit dicey in winter conditions. Hope you and all the family are well. Fingers crossed for getting back to the hills soon.

Hi Paul, we stayed on the ridge to just before the castle but the wind was knocking us about so we dropped into the lee of the wind on the right hand side of the ridge - was ok but still a far run out were you to slip here. Much fun was had though and it'll be a while before the axe and crampons will be required again! Take care , stay safe and thanks for watching ATB Murray

Blowin a Hoolie! The wind turns a mountain stroll into an expedition very quickly. Great video and interesting to see your companions opt for micro spikes instead of full on crampons. I tend to use micros more often these days as I have seen no full on Winter conditions down in the Lakes or Snowdonia for a couple of years now. I maybe need to venture further north!
