Ha, here we go again. James the weather man. I don't know how you pick such glorious days mate. Been following all of you munro journey so far and I reckon I've only seen you a handful of times in full gortex kit!! Cracking video as usual with some epic scenery. Only one thing wrong with your videos. They are not long enough . I could watch all day long. Well done James. Cheers, Ozzy.

Another great video. I completed these 4 from the dam out and you were correct the path alongside the Loch was brutal. Great idea using the ferry but don’t think that option was available when I climbed it. Nice to see as the views you got coming up to your first I did not get as the last two on my round was on the mist so great watching your footage.

Your adventure brought back some great memories James. Back in the noughties my girl friend and I biked and walked from the Linn of Dee for a 2 night camp near the Hutchison Memorial hut. The next day we hiked up to climb Beinn Mheadhoin and it's Munro tops. Returned to Loch Etchacan and then hiked up to Derry Cairngorm and its Tops. It was a baking hot Summer's day and after returning to Loch Etchacan, went for a swim. Memories that last a lifetime.

Great video. I really enjoy seeing figures in the landscape so the effort you put into setting up the camera and then walking past it is much appreciated, particularly as your walk was already a long one. That tor on Mheadhoin was a bit more awkward for me than you made it look. I didn’t enjoy the step across, which you did with a camera in your hand, but the rest of the hike round the Tops of Derry Cairngorm, Macdhui and Ben Mheadhoin is really good and gets into some uncrowded parts of the Cairngorms. Worth going back for!

@eddieharwood77885 күн бұрын
What great light you had for this - good light makes the Cairngorms look fabulous. Also nice to see you taking the less common route, although you could have made it less out and back, and shorter by dropping off Mheadhoin past the east end of Loch Avon. The fore is mighty cold, but you went paddling anyway. Less than a quarter of a century to go.
@ScottishMunroJourney5 күн бұрын
Thanks Eddie, yes had to make a route up for these as there was no ‘easy’ way to do it 😂 actually enjoyed it a lot. Yes I did shortcut off the side of Mheadhoin towards the loch but could have changed my route there, what a place. Cheers, James

What a fantastic video of a amazing area of the Cairngorms. I only started my Munro Journey last year with two and then 8 more this past spring. I've yet to do a Caingorm Munro or more, as the only one so far is Mayar (bailed out before Driesh as I was too knackered) Would love to return to the Lochnagar area as me and Skye had a very nice walk around Loch Muick and up to the waterfall behind the royal lodge. I've followed your Munro Journey for quite a while and what a journey - only 24 left now to bag - well done. ATB Karl
