Wild Camping the Great Glen Way in late autumn 

@@dwaynestewart6095 thanks Dwayne. It was originally in 4 separate parts before I just grouped it up into a single video. Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching, All the best, Carl

Thanks for watching and commenting Tony. It seems an age ago now. I must get back up there and walk this route once again. All the best,Carl

Hi Deanna, thank you for the very kind comments regarding this video. As I look back now on this walk I find myself yearning to return and do it again. I'm very happy to hear it's sparked fond memories within you from your own trip and hope you've enjoyed revisiting this beautiful area with me. At the time that low lying mist over loch Ness was a bit of an annoyance but I now realise I was quite lucky to catch it like that. After all the loch will still be there next time I go and more than likely be mist free.thanks for watching and subbing. All the best and happy New year, Carl

Thanks for watching Dougie. Glad you enjoyed it 👍 Cheers, Carl

Hi Shan thanks so much for watching and commenting all the best,Carl

Hi Andrew, glad to hear the video was helpful. Although I didn't do it at the time the one other thing I would recommend and would do myself if I were to do it again is pay the £10 at the corpach sea loch office for the key that gives access to the waterways toilets/shower blocks which are scattered along the route. Good luck with your walk. All the best, Carl

Hi Patrick, thank you for watching and I'm glad you're finding the videos interesting. Always nice to receive a comment such as yours so I thank you for that too. All the best, Carl

Thanks for watching. Glad you found the video useful in planning your forthcoming trip.With all the woodland areas you pass through you will be spoilt for choice in using your hammock. All the best, Carl

You're very welcome Jeanette. Glad the video has been of help to you. Good luck with your walk. Thanks for watching,all the best, Carl

​@@carljohnsonoutdoorsthanks and Merry Christmas! Could I be cheeky and ask where you got your front pack please? Kind regards.

@@Greenmanure62 and a merry Christmas to you and yours too Jeanette. The pack I used on this trek is the "Numbat chest pack" by helikon Tex. It's a multi pocket chest pack and has many compartments and attachment points and also houses a removable map section. It is though rather weighty. A lighter weight alternative would be the chest pod by OMM. I shall be featuring both in forthcoming videos once the festive period is out of the way. All the best, Carl

@@carljohnsonoutdoors thanks so much.

Hi Howard, glad you enjoyed the video and in hindsight now I do think the amount of condensation was inevitable and would of been the same in whatever tent I'd used. The weather conditions of cold clear nights with no wind and being close to water led to that problem being worse than normal. I have thought about the CWT. Maybe one for the near future? Thanks for watching. All the best, Carl

The scenery looks beautiful on the CWT it looks a hard walk but I think you would embrace it and film it beautifully.

@@howardmcknight9773 It's something I'd definitely like to do in the future. My main focus this year is to do the coast to coast. 👍

Hi Andy the tent here is a Hilleberg soulo. Theyre a top notch piece of kit and a dream to pitch but as theyre designed for four season use the flysheet comes right down to the ground and basically seals you in. Great if its cold or snowing but not for airflow although the tent has a small vent just below the little flap over the top.I think the condensation was made worse on this trip due to the cold clear weather with hardly a breath of wind. Thanks for watching. Sorry for late reply. I seem to have missed numerous comments. All the best mate,Carl

Hello, in all honesty I could not tell you. I've never been one to weigh my pack. I did actually get rid of that particular soulo but I now have one again 😊 Thanks for watching and commenting, all the best, Carl

Hello, they are made by Sistema. Hope that is of help. Thanks for watching 👍

@@carljohnsonoutdoors nice video.

Hello and many thanks for watching and subbing. Personally west highland way is my favourite. I've walked it 4 times now and if you want to get out and attempt a long distance trail this one is definitely the one to do first. For a start it is just simply amazing from start to finish (ok maybe not the last 2 miles or so lol). It's well supported in terms of camping/accomodation, places to eat or get a pint. Shops spread out along the way combined with honesty boxes give ample chance to resupply too. The start and finish have great markers so when you set off and pass under the arch of the Whw you really feel you're heading off on something special. When you reach the finish on the high st in fort William and sit down with my old pal the sore foot statue the sense of accomplishment is really felt. Another thing, and probably one of the greatest things about the Whw is the fellow travellers who you will encounter as you all share the trail. This trail is really international and walked by people from all over the world and for one week you are all sharing a great experience. You see the same faces every day and the sense of camaraderie is really felt. Don't get me wrong GGW is a great trail but for me WHW is the one to do. All the best and have a happy new year, Carl

Thank you so much. You had me at 'pint lol. Happy New year and look forward to your next adventures
