• ROUTE GUIDE
The Highlands of Scotland have been my stamping ground for over 30 years. This is a highlights reel of some of my most recent walks up some of my favourite mountains. Hover over the chapter timeline at the foot of the screen to see the locations. The full films for each mountain can be found on my channel. Hope you enjoy watching!
WILDERNESS! I know, I know. Referring to the Highlands as a wilderness is troublesome. The Highlands is not really a wilderness when you consider the loss of so many native species and the degradation of landscape scale habitats - its native woodland in particular. I deliberated about using the word in the title and I can only say that I opted for it because it's a better title than "Into Scotland's degraded landscapes" and, well, yes, the youtube algorithm seems to like that title. I hold my hands up and ask for forgiveness!

• MOUNTAIN SAFETY
Remember that hiking and mountain climbing can be dangerous. The videos on my channel are for entertainment only (other than where specified). Always prepare well and be willing to abandon a trip if it becomes dangerous due to weather or unexpected trail conditions. If you are new to hiking and the great outdoors it's always a good idea to go with a guide or a more experienced companion. And remember - give the wildlife some space, leave no trace, go quietly and enjoy it out there!
• A word on DRONES
I know how annoying it can be to hear a drone whizzing about when you are trying to enjoy the peace and solitude of wild places. I'm also aware of the potential to disturb wildlife with them. I always avoid flying the drone when there are other hikers around. It's one of the reasons I tend to hike at less popular times of day and in mid-week and I avoid using the drone if I do see others nearby. I never fly a drone towards wildlife or where birds are likely to be nesting.
