Fabulous route. Special for Lewis. I am sure that will hold strong and powerful memories for him. My sons now late 30’s and early 40’s from time to time remind me of our adventures when they were in their teens. Though at the time I didn’t really know all that they were thinking I have since been told these adventures meant a great deal to them and they remember little things I had forgotten. You have the pleasure of that to come in the years ahead.
Fantastic, Murray, and I'm sure your son must love watching himself with you on those amazing summits! Such a brilliant record for him.
What a good dad you are! Your son was it very safe hands. Excellent stuff.
Wonderful! Brought back memories of doing the first half of that route as a solo trip on a beautiful day in April 1974.
Magical Place for sure!. A great Day! Forever memories for you both! Well done the Boyz!... Onwards & Upwards!!

Lewis might feel somewhat self-conscious as they do at this age, but in time to come, he'll look back on these days out with you and will treasure them for sure. Love the soft light through the high cloud and inversions too. Well captured and well done both. 🙂
The broken spectre with the shadow of Lewis over it was very special. The whole video was spectacular. Yours are the only Skye Memories I have and I thank you Murray from my heart for the various times you've been there and filmed.
What a brilliant video. The Cuillins are magic and what a great route. It makes me smile though, that Lewis does his best to look hang dog when he knows he is being filmed, when quite clearly he is really enjoying himself. You would not get a teenager up there who did not want to go! He will remember that day for a long time. Well done to him.

The Isle Of Skye really is special and it is hard to beat the Cuillin Mountains - a special place , especially on days like these :) Thanks for watching ATB Murray
Super hike Murray so nice to have Lewis up there with you. I love being up the hills with my children, making memories. Thanks for taking us along, and you stay safe too....Alioban
Brilliant stuff Murray, Skye rarely disappoints, although the midgies do their best, especially in July! I fell in love with Skye in the early 1980s and looked at this triple many times, but ignored it in favour of the cursed Munro bagging disease, so thanks for sharing it with us now. I'm yet to share a Cuillin with my kids, and despite my age still hold out hope of doing so at some point, so well done for getting young Lewis up on such a great day that I'm sure he'll remember for a very long time :)

Hi Murray. I love that you’re making solid memories with your son. I really enjoyed this vlog. Take care. Safe walking/climbing🥰
Thanks Murray and Lewis, beautiful Skye, a magical looking place. I can imagine in years to come Lewis telling his grand kids about his trip on Skye this day with you. Murray surely you could train the little Haggis critters to catch those midges😂 thank you both.

Did Sgurr nan Each 20 years ago from Loch Slapin . Hadn’t researched this spiky little hill and found the bad step quite difficult. This area is superb and as much fun as the Cuillin ridge.

Ay up. Stunning scenery as always me owd 👍🙂
Lewis hasn't quite got the comfort in front of the camera thing yet but it's wonderful to see you both enjoying the time together ❤ ❤
Another great video Murray and props to Lewis for keeping up with the 'old man' ha ha 😃 Your drone footage was epic Murray - I particularly liked that big 360 fly by shot you got at 11:45. Looks like conditions were just about perfect - maybe with the exception of 'the midge' down lower eh. All the best from Australia mate 👍

Another great trip. Lewis did you proud too! I wonder if I'll go back to Skye soon because I've still got Torridon and Assynt to get to...then you do these films!!! .....and Murray. We all love an opening shot. And I do believe you set the bar way too frequently 😋😂

What a cracking day out for the pair of you - Lewis is a lucky lad to get out on such adventures. In my experience youngsters prefer scrambles to plods and I’m sure he loved this day.
