What a thoroughly engaging and likeable young man this is, absolute pleasure to share in his adventures speaking for those of us whose days on the hills are long past. His videos show editing at its best and remind us just how beautiful Scotland is, lifting the spirits of all who watch them. Well done, very well done and appreciated indeed.

@ScottishMunroJourney 2 года назад

Thank you so much for your kind comments Glen - I enjoy making these videos for others & myself to watch back so I’m glad you enjoy them! It’s not a hard job to make Scotland look beautiful 😁 Cheers, James

Excellent traverse of my favourite mountain. I am just about to embark on it once again. My munroist dogs Robbie and Rory ashes are scattered on this mountain and I have made a point of climbing these mountains on my 10th birthday markers starting from 40 years old so 10 th of May this year my 70th I will be back on these stunning hills. I climb it from your decent. Been on the School ridge. But don’t think I have the upper body strength to scramble anymore so will slog up to the Bealach. Great footage well done.

Brilliant video, loved the drone footage at the ridge when it starts to get proper scrambly, we went up there on Saturday there, one of the best days on the hills I've ever had

That looks like a beautiful trail to hike with incredible views and dronies, would love to shoot a solo hike there one day. I really like how you guide the viewer through your adventure.

What a set of ridges. Thanks for letting the views do the talking. Climbed this in a group in cloud and our leader took us down the wrong side of the final ridge leaving us about 5 miles back on that road...

@ScottishMunroJourney 2 года назад

Fantastic ridge & Munros😁 that must have been torture at the end of your day 😧.. Atb, James

@selwynmccausland4085 2 года назад

Superb James. I'm actually just back in the house after doing those two munros today. Very similar conditions although less snow. That's a fair pull up to the ridge at the start - certainly gets the heart pumping. The walk out was good until hitting that track and then road seemed to go on for ages. Look forward to ur new outing.

@ScottishMunroJourney 2 года назад

Thanks Selwyn 😁 hope you enjoyed it as much as I did, one of my favourites already! Your right, its a fair pull up the ridge! Thanks for watching, Atb, James

@AndyOB 2 года назад

One of my favourite routes James.Drone footage of you on the Schoolhouse Ridge was excellent.A few years ago since i've done it but it is high on the list of ones to go back to with the drone as i never had one at the time.😀👍

@ScottishMunroJourney 2 года назад

Its a fantastic route Andy, definitely one for the drone 😁👍 i’ll no doubt be doing it again one day too Atb, James

@darrinfrew4066 2 года назад

One of the mountains I made an attempt on but didn't get to the top. I did it in late spring and didn't have winter gear but I got to a section where all the rocks had running water and about an inch of smooth ice over them, from spring snow thaw I'd imagine. I decided the risks were more than the rewards and turned back. Oh well! Better that than taking a header off the ridge!

@ScottishMunroJourney 2 года назад

Can imagine that would be pretty intimidating with some ice on it, correct decision turning back.. not always an easy one to make.. Thanks for watching Atb, James

@alistairthow1384 2 года назад

@nickname6747 2 года назад

The Vair pair via an interesting route! We were in a rush doing these and just went up and down through the forestry tracks and up one corrie to your 2nd of the day, onto your 1st and down same way you did - bit on a steep scramble through trees as the path just seemed to disappear. Thanks for uploading. Awesome drone shots of you ascending the ridge! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⛰👍

@2112Tix 2 года назад

Amazing weather and drone footage. I took my wife on this route - her first Munro’s. Word of caution: don’t follow the burn down through the forest it’s well sketchy and drops into a steep dangerous gorge, best to head to the right, around the forest perimeter.

@ScottishMunroJourney 2 года назад

Thanks 😁 great ones to pick for your wifes first Munros 😁 Atb, James

@richardmichael1445 2 года назад

You so right...I made the mistake last July of walking down then heading left ..it was hard going....

@natalieminnis 2 года назад

Save the 10 out of 10 for An Teallach! But I would have rated that 9.5 out of 10 at least, especially with that fantastic drone footage. I did the "Schoolhouse Ridge" ascent a few years ago and loved it, but I had terrible cramp as I'd been tiling a floor the week before the walk, and the views were great but not as good as the ones you got. We left a car at each end of the walk, so we didn't have to do the road walk back.

@ScottishMunroJourney 2 года назад

It might be 😁 I maybe have a 10/10 coming up in the next few videos… The ridge was fantastic, really enjoyed it 😁 great idea with two cars, I wish I had left my bike at one end, ill know for next time! Thanks for watching Atb, James

@Stu1972Mac Год назад

Done these 5 years ago in winter, brilliant hills, but your right about the walkout 🤣 Do you mind me asking what drone you use .
