Bothying for Beginners - Craig Bothy 

Thanks must go to Craig Bothy for producing the beginners guide and his help in making this excellent video which will no doubt become a cult classic.Good on yer Craig.

Looks like a belter. Might have to be my first shoot of the autumn once the midges, ticks, and tourists subside!

Very good to see an actual toilet. I think even the remote bothies could have one - most likely an old style pit toilet where you have a "little house" with a seat and a hole, where you cover what's done with earth or even ash from the fire, since they almost all have fireplaces! They worked for a long time where there wasn't modern plumbing, and they still work. Add a water butt or two like they have here and you've got good enough water for hand washing, or boiling to drink. After all there's plenty of winter days where the ground is too hard to dig a hole, even if that appeals!

Excellent video that just came up on my feed.

Popped up on my feed for whatever reason or algorithm which is known to me........but thankfully it did. I visited the Bothy with friends in days well past when it was a Youth hostel......one of my most fondest of memories of the area that will never fade and continue to bring a smile! Looking forward to your next trip out, is Camasunary on the list?

Stunning~!!

I would love to camp in some bothys but I can't travel and I live in the US. We don't have bothys here which is a shame. So, I'm doing it through you. Thanks for sharing...

Hi, thanks for the superb film. I tend to camp outside the bothies (for my peace and for others!), so it would be helpful if you could mention if there are flat camping spots near the building. All the best with your films.

from the Great State of Texas, How Dee Do and a well edited video. beautiful scenery, but sure does look like y'all darn near froze!
