Solo woman climbs all Scottish munros non-stop - 'Project 282' 

Thanks Ewan! We released it on Vimeo when we first made the film so we'll see if RU-vid likes it!

Yes

Thanks so much Emil and for the feedback too :) If you want to hear more from Emily's adventure, this podcast might be of interest too. Happy adventuring open.spotify.com/episode/5aJfOPo0tpp4FqRJvyU6wf

Hi again @stevie2686 There are indeed more than 282 mountains in Scotland over 3,000 feet. However, there were only 282 mountains over 3,000 feet that featured in the Munro List maintained by the Scottish Mountaineering Club at the time I undertook this project. Emily Scott

​@@emilys3966Congratulations on your epic achievement on a par with Nick who climbed all the Munros in 2 years but he was 82 at the time!!!!. I believe there are more mountains above 3000ft than munros, these are called munro tops🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Thanks for your thoughts Ben. We like to encourage anyone to climb up hills, munros, corbetts, wainwrights or otherwise if it makes them happy. To us, it shouldn’t matter where someone is from, so long as they’re respectful of others and the environment. For sure, it’s a huge achievement to do over a lifetime or in one go, especially doing it solo and cycling between. For reference, not that it should matter - Emily actually grew up in Northern Ireland, and not England.

Hi again @stevie2686 Please go ahead and investigate and "possibly expose" whatever you think needs exposing. It was an adventure I undertook for myself and by my own rules. I have GPX files of the whole trip and have always been very happy to discuss every element of the trip when people ask (and indeed have had a few conversations with people who have both undertaken or considered a munro round since). As mentioned above, you are correct about the Bealach Na Ba not being necessary, but we used the scene in the film as it helped to give a sense of the difficulties of cycling with a laden bike as well as showcasing an epic landscape. Maybe in future, you could bear in mind that there are real people on the other side of your computer screen. This was a project that was 4 months of my life in the doing and has had a huge impact on me. It stands as my proudest achievement and the film was a passion project of a small group of friends who put a lot of time, effort and money into it - to share a sense of the journey and highlight the incredible scenery of the Scottish Highlands.

. . . FIVE months later, Emily - and not a single word from ‘Stevie268’ and ‘ his ‘ - I’ll almost guarantee, rather than a ‘ her’s ‘ … threatened ‘expose’. Who are these, oh so predictable ‘types’ out there?.. Out ‘no where’ would be far more accurate; tucked away in their darkened lair’s, tapping away on their keyboard’s with hollow vapidity as their modus operandi.I had a housemaster many, many moons ago who (correctly) described these er, ‘types’ as … “Gutless wonders”. I applaud you - and all concerned with this most remarkable endeavour and outcome. A great production all round. I wish you very well on all of your present and future adventure’s.

Hi @stevie2686 Happy to clear things up for you here. Rab supported me with kit for my attempt. They also helped to promote the film and hosted a Q&A when we released the film (if you watch it, it does address some of your comments). No money was provided though. The film was a passion project (unfortunately self-funded!) and the Scotland scenes were filmed over 2 separate trips that were both about a week - some of the footage is from the last week on the expedition (September 2018 - generally all the bad weather shots) and then the remaining footage is from another trip the following summer (June 2019) where we specifically went to try and capture the more 'epic' scenery - this is the trip when we filmed the shots of the Bealach Na Ba. You are correct that I did not need to go there whilst doing the munro circuit, although I did go to the bottom of it and had a good feed at the cafe at the bottom after climbing Beinn Alligin and before heading to Strathcarron. It was a largely unsupported attempt, but not completely unsupported (I went with an MCI on the Isle of Skye for one day on the Cuillins and I didn't have a canoe to paddle to Mull and back, nor a SUP to paddle across Loch Lomond with me). I'm more than happy to be completely transparent about both the journey itself and how the film came about and the logistics of it. Best wishes, Emily Scott

@@britishadventurecollective irrelevant. They are not called valleys .

@@britishadventurecollective There is an old saying . ( when in rome)

@@britishadventurecollective cumail Alba sgiobalta

And good effort but they failed as they never climbed the original munro list . No one is a completer until they have at least included the original list . Just saying . .
