This circular walk from Auchessan in Glen Dochart takes in the two munros Meall Glas and Sgiath Chuil. It was a mixed weather day with the grey, misty and occasional rain only slightly improving through the walk with the tops seldom clear.

Great video, really enjoyed watching again, fabulous photos from previous visits with snow.

Hi Les, Fortunately we’ve had a few visit with clear tops👍. Hopefully the next trip won’t need the backup from archive images. Cheers, Charlie.

Thanks for reminding me of my visit to these two Munros, which was from Glen Lochay in spring 1994, with snow patches.

@charliemccartney7055 2 года назад

Hi Geoffrey, These two are normally a winter visit for us but with a changeable weather forecast we didn't feel the need to drive further than necessary. An enjoyable day nonetheless and it was good to see them without snow. Cheers, Charlie.

Nice one Charlie. Another guid day and another nice comparison with winter.

Hi Charlie, another good video! It looked a bit pathless not my type of walk! The winter shots were impressive with great panaramic views! All the best! Mark.

@charliemccartney7055 3 года назад

Hi Mark, The path to the first hill is certainly more defined then ever but I can understand why the route doesn't suit everyone. Cheers, Charlie.

Good stuff Charlie. You got up pretty close to those horns! Beginning to look like autumn. Atb gordon

Hello, Generally always wary when around cattle but this big boy hardly moved a muscle when we trotted passed. Running and jumping fences is normally the order of the day with beasts but two tired hill men obviously didn't pose a problem...lol. Cheers, Charlie.

Nice one Charlie. Did this route a few months back and got to my 100th Munro, Didn’t manage Meall Glas as mate had bad ankle sprain and had to turn back. I’ll be back!

@charliemccartney7055 3 года назад

Hi Andrew, Hope your mate recovered quickly. These hills are a good winter option with easy parking and nothing too technical. Cheers, Charlie

Hello, Many thanks for taking the time to view our latest outing. We’re planning another trip this week so fingers crossed we get a better weather window for a change. Cheers, Charlie

Hi Alistair, Yes, the hills are certainly in transition now and things cooling down. Cheers, Charlie.

@selwynmccausland4085 3 года назад

Good to see u's out again Charlie. I did those two last summer in perfect clear conditions but they still went on the 'Munros I will only ever do once' list. I agree that they are probably better in winter conditions.

@charliemccartney7055 3 года назад

Hi Selwyn, I understand why they would be a single visit for most but the winter gives another dimension to even the simplest of top without the challenges of rock faces. These two are about right for the short winter days and also allow easy parking should the snow be a road level. Many thanks for watching. Cheers, Charlie.

@HighlandHikers 3 года назад

Sunday looks like the better day! I was up here on Monday and it was worse unfortunately. I went anti-clockwise so trying to find my way off Meall Glas and through the bog was certainly interesting. All the best - Alistair

Nice video Charlie, it's funny when I'm driving up the Crianlarich road past Achlyne they never look like Munros,it's a nice walk up aswell from Glen Lochee, thanks again Charlie. Ian Mckay

I mean Glen Lochay

@ianmckay6972 3 года назад

Charlie strangest thing I've seen in the hills, the double top of Ben Dorain early summers morning, on the other top this guy took his gear off and started running around naked, I couldn't believe it,apparently he was an officer in the then Argyll regiment who had lost a bet the previous night 😳🙄

@charliemccartney7055 3 года назад

@@ianmckay6972 a bet is bet in the regiment circles :) I bet he wished he'd suggested a smaller top...lol

@charliemccartney7055 3 года назад

Hi Andy, No views yesterday but we've been luck on these tops before. I think I prefer these two when in winter condition. Cheers, Charlie.

Wet and windy then Charlie! I think everyone had a similar weekend! I found that walk quite taxing when I did it...cheers Paul

@charliemccartney7055 3 года назад

Hi Paul, Same sort of weather across the country unfortunately so didn't travel too far to experience the grey. Hoping for a good weather window in the Cairngorms tomorrow. Cheers, Charlie.

Evening Charlie, just good to be out and about.... I've be meaning to ask who is your walking companion ? ATB 👍🏔

@charliemccartney7055 3 года назад

Hi Dave, My Dad got me started on the Munro journey many years ago but Mike, my twin brother, is the main man now. It’s quite handy as we are well matched and compliment each other very well. Cheers, Charlie.

@discoverydave8541 3 года назад

Charlie McCartney how lucky are you to be a twin ....fantastic in its self and to share such a beautiful pass time.... thank you both.

@hikingwithfrank315 3 года назад

Nice wee outing Charlie, hope to do those 2 soon. Had same conditions up at Stob Ban ( grey Corries ) 19.9.21.

@charliemccartney7055 3 года назад

Hi Frank, The weather looked the same across the country so we didn't bother travelling too far. Enjoyed the outing as these tops are normally a winter venue for us. Cheers, Charlie.

@PapaTube-ep1nk 3 года назад

Love your videos, BUT! don't you think that by showing others you going off the main routes and paths up Munro's and Corbetts that this will encourage others to follow suit in their masses, causing erosion and vegetation damage, not to mention disturbing wildlife in the breeding season spring months. Far to many are pounding the hills and mountains now, its unsustainable on sparse vegetation, irreparable damage will be a result. Total selfish thinking to pound beautiful Mountains and Glens to Bare Rock and mud slides.

@selwynmccausland4085 3 года назад

Well in terms of these two munros there isn't any main routes or paths apart from the initial walk in/out which they followed on the video. They walked the route in reverse to the way i walked them. Its a bit of a stretch to think that Charlie/Mike's walks are going to lead to increased erosion/damage.
