I must have watched this video at least 10 times by now. It's a genuinely exceptional account of what looks to be one of the most incredible winter mountaineering days out, technically accessible to even fairly inexperienced winter mountaineers. More of these types of videos please!

Another belter Murray. Love the fact that you do most of your trips on your own, as I do. Inspirational stuff. Love it 😎

Brilliant - thank you

Awesome mate inspiring

Love your videos Murray absolutely fantastic.

Climbed it many years ago. One of my favourite mountains. Great video

Absolutely brilliant 👍

Really nice to see this route in the full. I have made three attempts on this so far. The first two ended up with a retreat over the first horn due to deteriorating weather and the last one in Feb 2018 was a retreat at one of the chock-stones. Sloppy granular snow and not enough to go over, but too much to go under. It came together later in the week though with similar sunlit views from Liathach after a date with George and his Sinister Prong. Maybe this year and attempt number 4, as I will be back in a couple of weeks.

Fabulous 🏔🏔🏔🏔🏔 I really enjoy your films although I just couldn’t climb those mountains I love to see them. Only Munro I’ve done was Lochnagar 👍🤗

Spectacular!! I was in the Torridon Hills in the second week of May this year myself. Hired a guide to climb Beinn Eighe and Beinn Alligin. Went up Beinn Eighe the first day, but we had to turn back due to an extremely strong wind that literally blew me off my feet now and then. Walked past the loch up to where the gully starts and saw some of the wreckage of the plane that once crashed there. The second day we reached Tom na Gruagaich (we started from the other side and came from a different direction) and than turned back again for the same reason, but I've regretted that ever since. I wanted to stretch myself, but actually didn't. Thanks for sharing!

very nice journey Wilkie - it was real pleasure to watch. cheers

Scotland's Mountains ...... just back into Huaraz after a 10 day/140 km trek in the Cordillera Huayhuash. A couple of 5,000 m passes and stunning views of all the great mountains of the Huayhuash including Siula Grande. Had a yound hill walker from Elgin in our group. A few days before we head into the Cordillera Blanca for another 10 days to try to catch up on your postings.

Absolutely superb and so inspiring. The Mrs has now come to call you “oh, The Crazy Guy” when I tell her you have a new video up 😆 Amazing, climbing and a level I hope to be at some day, simply brilliant videos.

I've always been curious about Eag Dubh (aka Black Cleft), do climbers ever use that as an ascent route?

How many Sony batteries do you normally take on a trip Murray and is that the 12 to 24 G lens on there? Cheers for another great video Murray

Hi Murray. Revisiting this video again while in isolation. Do you think that B1 Boots, C1 Crampons, 1 straight axe and no rope would be alright on this route?

Can you advise on your boots. I am looking for new boots and your boots seem to fare well climbing and with crampons, what are they and would you recommend?

Hi Norman - different people favour different types of boots - my only real advise would be to go into a shop where the staff can advise and try the boots on. Nothing worse than boots that don't fit right good luck Thanks for watching Murray Beinn Alligin Torridon The Horns of Alligin via Deep South Gully
