Wonderful video from the amazing opening scene to feet-cooling finish. It had everything: scary bits, sandwiches, a story, glorious scenery and best of all, it had Murray.

When the weather holds, Scotland really does take some beating, genuinely some of the most stunning scenery in the world. Amazing footage Murray, that was a very long day, but an incredible one, you certainly earnt your snooze! Thanks as always for sharing your adventures🤗👍

Great video and got a great day for it . Ive had a few naps hillside ,but gave up after people kept waking me up to see if i was ok 😂.

I really want to get up on that part of the Buachaille for some climbing. We made our first visit a month ago for a wee walk up the Devil's Staircase.

That's the very first time I've watched a video of a munro that I have just done myself which was a nice memory of the exact footsteps I took and funnily enough where I sat on Stob Na Broige! Really good day we had same as yours views for miles. Finally managed to do Bidean on Sunday and the legs are still paying the price 😅. I found the climb up Stob Coire Nan Lochan to be the trickiest section on the final approach to its summit. Those boulders were fortunately dry considering all the rain we've had which was a blessing in disguise. Thanks again for your videos Murray. ATB

Curved ridge has been up at the top end of my to do list for a loooong time. I've done Stob Dearg a few times, the farthest along the ridge I've managed was 3/4 of the way, that view down Glen Etive from Stob na Broige still eludes me. Knee pain and upcoming charity walk 11 years ago meant I ducked out of the final push. Another thoroughly enjoyable video, here's to many more. 👍

I love curved ridge. It's one reason why I have a lot more munro ascents than I have munros. Whenever I come up from the 'deep south' I have to do curved ridge or the Aggie as I head up to the NW highlands. I did it this June and was the only one on it. That day bypassed Crowberry tower, but it is a great buttie stop. Finding the start of curved ridge is an absolute classic. My standing joke is that the start of curved ridge is a bit like porn, hard to define, but you know it when you see it.

Met a group of students up Stob na Doire last year, they had a friend over from New Zealand and he was desperate to do a munro. Thats where they went, the only non Munro up there. I never mentioned it, they looked like they had a great day and thats what mattered. 😌

Great film Murray. I visited Scotland late May/early June and although I went up the valley opposed to curved ridge, I have to say this route has to go down as my favourite ever. Granted you’ve done a lot more in Scotland than I ever will, but I’d happily walk this again. I did it last day in May and it was a scorcher. Amazing views and thanks to KZread I’ll never forget them. Only issue was, I had no breeze so was accompanied by the beasties 🪰😂 Tough day but one of the best. Thanks.

Murray could you do a video explaining the Scottish terminology that seams to be describing the features of the mountains?. Us non native Scott's, not raised on these terms may not fully appreciate it as we should because we may not understand it. I live in the Cairgorms and can't drive past a hicker without checking for your bright yellow and blue. If you ever see an idiot shouting a greeting from a vehicle whizzing by....that will be me....

Hi Murray I need some advice if at all possible, I’m heading up to Glencoe next weekend and taking my 11 year old son with me. Problem is I was going to do curved ridge but I have been told it is way to steep and dangerous and to do Broad buttress or great gully buttress instead. What do you think ? Thank you

Hi - it’s hard for me to recommend mainly as I have no idea on levels of experience etc etc but in my own experience when the conditions have been good - great gully buttress was easier then the other two 👍 sorry I cannot be more specific but in sunny conditions I reckon this may be best bet Good luck Murray

Did the ridge (although starting up Coire na Tulaich) with my then 10 year old grandson. Despite being in the clag 90% of the time with only very limited views, it was a wonderful day (maybe BECAUSE the conditions were a bit challenging) and still brings back great memories. With others re Stob na Doire status. Just SEEMS as if it should be a Munro.

Lol.early gang!!

Second!

'I'm just going to sort my helmet out'. Too much information dude.

Awesome video. I love this mountain. It bugs me though, how Stob na Doire is almost the same size as Stob Dearg and yet is isn't classed as a munro. It's MASSIVE! I've looked all over the internet for a reason why this is and the best answer I can find is that it has something to do with the ascent and descent on either side of the top. Sorry if I sound like a broken record because I'm aware that loads of people have debated this in the past but I just find it bizarre how Stob na Doire is taller than Stob na Bròige and yet its not classed.

Murray i eventually done Curved Ridge last week and it did not disappoint ⛰️🧗‍♂️👌 Agree 1 of the finest scrambles out there has to be much tougher for you guys doing all your film work 🎥 You got a great day for it and it’s certainly a hike up a mountain that you could do again and again thanks for sharing your adventure 👌
