Never bagged a Munro in my life ( to my eternal shame ) your videos make me feel like you've dragged me up! 😂... Another stunner.👍

Wonderful video again James. The quality of the video and the excellent camerawork makes it feel as if I am on the hills with you. Many thanks, Dave.

I've done a few trips to Scotland. Knoydart and Skye etc. But watching your films I'm super jealous. Great job. They look fantastic. I'm basically Jealous of the fact you get in so often. Living down south of England isn't very helpful 😂. Fantastic looking trip as always, 👍

Mate your last few video's have been awesome. Always got a smile on your face . Great viewing. 👍

A big well done to MSR. Great customer service is always appreciated. A fabulous adventure to say the least. Brilliant video.

Very proud to call this my home area, can't wait to get back home and get into the mountains again.

Well done James, that was absolutely stunning. Got to say, you really pick the weather. Amazing views, great commentary and I'm having difficulty deciding if the views in your Skye videos are better or not?? Anyway, both were brilliant as far as I'm concerned. Well done, and keep it up. Cheers, Ozzy. PS, wish I lived a bit closer rather than 450 miles south, I'd be amongst it every day off work.😂

brilliant 10 out of 10, what weather and solitude. I think A'Mhaighdean is my favourite munro. the two Corbetts are wonderful. I did the Corbetts with a friend Alan, who I met at Rattagan, he continued over to Letterewe to walk the Corbetts. Again a beautiful quiet area with golden eagles and horses.

Wow 10 out of 10, but yes definitely worth it. That must be really tough for you to complain James.

Super video James. What a great two days you had in what is a truly remote area. Certainly not a place for mishaps. The conditions, although dry, looked demanding, but you were rewarded with superb views, particularly the one from the summit of A’Mhaighdean, one of the prized Munro summits. I know from my trip into that group, the sense of remoteness is palpable, but exciting. Thank you again for sharing the video.

Very well done James. Both in getting round that circuit in a oner and also for the excellent film recording it all. Your film making is really second to none of all the folks making these type of Munro films. Dead jammy with the weather once again I see. I've had 5 trips into these munros over the years to bag them all twice and haven't had any views quite like that. The sunset from A' Mhaighdean really was the icing on the cake. Cheers!

Well done, that was some hike, worthwhile though, great view's,

Wish I knew how to edit like yourself your context is superb. Well done James.

Waow, what a place! Stunning! And fantastic sunset!

Great video of a wonderful area of Scotland... perhaps the most wonderful!

Another great video catches the remoteness of the place we live in the most beautiful place on earth well done James

This video appeared in my feed and I really enjoyed it. I’ve subscribed now. I’ve only climbed 13 of the Cairngorm Munros so far as it’s a long way from Kent but I’ve got so many routes planned. Whenever I go out I always do multiday trips and wildcamp as it’s the best way to do it. I’ll watch your other videos now for certain. Thanks!

Superb trip. Thank you for the memories, great commentary and camerawork. I also approached from the south in 2019 in a similar heat wave and was too afraid of running out of water to camp on top of A'Mhaighdean, so I camped at the bealach before Beinn Tarsunn. Its a 10/10 for me too. A'Mhaighdean without a doubt is the finest view of any Munro.

Another brilliant film, thank you. You could teach many others on YT!

Brilliant James, I was in the area last year. Walked in from Kinlochewe via Slioch in amazing weather, and camped on the shores of Loch Fada, hoping to summiting Beinn Tarsuinn and A'Mhaighdean the next day. The weather turned dramatically, and we got up Beinn Tarsuinn in 50 mph sideways rain but abandoned the idea of A'Mhaighdean (or Armaggedon, as we called it) in favour of getting back to our camp before walking out in lovely weather again the next day. I keep saying I'll go back and get the rest of the Fisherfield Munros.

Incredible

James! what can I say! absolutely epic! just watched with a coffee and that looked like a tough shift....I have looked at several options for these and still haven't made my mind up which way to go? like you I like the idea of using the bike so I may copy you. Did you plot your own route or is there one available on GPX? Absolutely stunning weather you got and the views on all the tops looked amazing. Water is obviously a big consideration so that's good to know. Yeah your route looks good........Im a big copy cat! lol. thanks mate and again Fantastic!!!! Paul

Thank you - yes this was during our last good spell over a month ago 😂👎

That was fabulous, particularly the ligt you had on day 1. That NW ridge of A'Mhaghdean is utterly stunning to look at and I have yet to do it - definitely on my bucket list. Just one correction to your translation. Beinn Tarsuinn means Transverse, (not Transfers,) Hill, i.e a hill that lines itself at right angles to the general hill lines around. In this case it is actually a great crossover from Mulloch Coire Mhic Fhearchair to A' Mhaghdean, but in general Beinn Tarsuinns are a bit of a pain in the way they line up with the ridges around.

Fantastic video James. Let me know the next time you are going out so I will be guaranteed good weather 😆. I haven't done these yet but this was exactly the way I was planning on doing them. Was the track pretty easy to cycle in surface wise?

@ScottishMunroJourney

11 ай бұрын

Thank you 😁 haha I’m heading out tomorrow, slightly unpredictable forecast but hoping for a good day! It was a tough round but think its the best way to do them.. the surface was fine but I did a bit of pushing uphill, amazing on the way out though 😁 Enjoy when you come to do them, Cheers, James

James, my friend - what a campsite that was, and all to yourself, eh? Just as well you got it in before the monsoon season came upon us, too! And if I may say, the benefits of all that climbing on Skye are plain to see - as from the back at least, your hips, bum and thighs are a different shape from how there were before. If you weren't spoken for already, you'd have them queuing right around the block! Well done; hope your subsequent trips aren't too damp.

Amazing weather for an amazing trip. The Fisherfield is something else. It’s interesting that the more recently preferred approach now seems to be from Kinlochewe since the demotion of Beinn a’Chlaidheimh. The round from Shenevall is probably easier, although it involves the river crossing which, if in spate would be very difficult. When you go back to do the Corbetts in the Fisherfield I do recommend a crossing of the area from Dundonnell to Poolewe. We did it over six days, stopping 2 nights at Shenavall and Carn Mor. It is an amazing Exped. Thanks for sharing.

Hey - thank you for the videos, and congrats on the amazing 200 in your Skye series! If possible, could you please explain how you decide what's safe to drink, and what equipment/tablets you use to help disinfect the water? I'm a pretty new hiker myself but I've yet to drink from natural sources and I'm not too sure on what practices I should be doing to help keep myself safe.

Wonderful video, stunning views. I agree it is most definitely a place to linger if the weather is kind. I most recently walked in the way your went and enjoyed good weather and great views. I have also come in from Poolewe by foot. As you like biking I can recommend that route too as I noticed plenty riding in. Another idea I have been brewing is the possibility of biking in from Dundonnel, camping or staying at the bothy at Sheneval taking in some/all of the tops and then biking out to Poolewe. That would make an excellent trip I would say. I would agree with you that A’Mhaighdean is probably my favourite Munro, particularly for its remoteness and the views from it. Long may the Fisherfield remain the wilderness it surely is.

Great video. I always notice when I am in the Uk that hardly anyone wears hats when hiking. Coming from Australia I find that hard to understand.
