Thank you 😁
Nearly six years since I walked up Coire Lair in memory of my late wife who died in an accident July 1992. She loved the area and we used to walk and scramble when we could on high days and holidays. This is wonderful footage. Very moving for me. Thank You!

That Drone footage and music gave me goosebumps. I'm going to Torridon in 5 weeks, it's my playground, excellent video, just amazing 👍
oh Wow ! Who wouldn't be moved by the views in this outing, I can only echo the previous comments, staggering, fantastic, magical, goose-bumps and more, thankyou. 😲
Torridon, beautiful nd wild ...was there some years back ...hardly go again at 76!
Absolutely stunning video. I remember, some years ago, I did this the other way round. As I was coming off the summit of Liath I went arse over elbow on the rocky path. My wife wet herself laughing because I was one of those clucking safety hens to my wife ("be careful here, be careful there")! So memorable with that stunning drone footage.
Clouds going over was a nice shot 👏🏻
Thank you for another days Journey.
Enjoy it you say, doesn't quite cover it, extraordinary, magnificent, amazing.
Griaß di, Very nice video and cool tour. Has again made a lot of fun to watch. I wish you a nice weekend already.
I can't wait for you to go to skye 🥰😍 my favourite place, however I haven't been to Torridon YET 😊 excellent video
I enjoyed joining you on climbing Sgorr Ruadh with the spectacular views all around and especially down to Loch Torridon. I used the OS map to accompany you on peaks I've seen many times but not climbed. Thank you.

Nice one James, great film. Coire Lair is a beautiful place, I remember being blown away the first time I saw it, as it just suddenly opens up after the initial hike up from the station. Looking forward to watching your Skye trip, fingers crossed for some great weather. Good stuff, cheers.

Gorgeous views! These are two Munros I cannot wait to climb - but as you say, we are spoilt in this country and I've so many other things planned I'll probably put them off for another year! One of my plans is to climb one or two of the easiest Cuillins, to get a feel for the ridge before I do the more difficult ones with a guide, or guides because I love climbing so much I want to take my time over them! But I'm looking forward to your video of doing the ridge.
Brilliant James another cracking video with amazing views and the music just suits the theme well. I take my hat off to you guys that make videos like this. The amount of walking you do going back and forth for the camera setup is crazy. You must be absolutely knackered after a hike like that. Well done again James. And I'm sure many of us are looking forward to your Skye journey.
Great job as always mate. Thanks, it inspires us to get out there.

Great area for hill walking. Fantastic drone shots over Beinn Liath Mhor.
A fabulous area as you say, and I like that you mention the Corbetts, all of which are of the same calibre. Fuar Tholl is a natural extension of your round and is probably the most spectacular of the three. Well you have good reason to return for all the Corbetts in the area, and a few lower ones beside.
Fabulous film making , my friend.Thanks for sharing your adventures with is all.This was truly magical.That truly was an inspirational masterpiece.
Absolutely beautiful views! I love Torridon as well. Fabulous video! Well done!

What an amazing place Torridon is James. Even though you are now well into the couple of hundred tops now, it's a wise decision to hire a guide for the Cullins. Hopefully plenty more before that big adventure.
James, have you considered a water filter system versus carrying 1kg per litres of water? I use a Grayl Geopress and have filtered from cattle troughs, surface puddles, tarns, Loch Lomond itself etc without a single issue. Used it last on Tuesday in the Brecon Beacons while pushing 44km in the first day of Storm Noah. Invaluable for endurance and surviving remote locations if you get weathered in.

Funny you say that, I have just invested in a Katadyn filter and now carry that rather than litres of water.. very handy 😁 Cheers, James

Back in the 90s the football stadium disasters of the 80s were still fresh in everyone’s mind and with the introduction of all seater stadiums with a better fan experience, disorderly behaviour was less prevalent in stadiums - I think lockdown has played its part and the younger generation of fans realise that ineffective stewarding can allow them to push the boundaries but it’s a much wider issue than football
Hi James, stunning shots and video footage. I have 'got into' Beluga Lagoon in the last 12 months or so and have used it on my own vids, so atmospheric. What sort of drone do you use? That's an area I'd love to explore photography wise. Keep up the great work, I am in awe!

Ben Damph is a Corbett, but barely a few metres short of Munro status, a big cairn might do it? Then all the Munro bagger,s would have to revisit. Show,s how it,s a nonsense, you don,t need to label hill,s.
