I would never use my ice axe with the leash flailing around loosely as it could easily snag and cause a potential being wrenched out of your hands resulting in loss and/or striking a climber below. It’s a very silly thing to do from a safety perspective. You should either use it or take it off. Interesting video.

Thanks!

Excellent thanks!

One of the best videos I've watched on the CMD Arete which I'm planning on tackling in 3 weeks time.

Probably about as good as me 😂😂.. I’ll leave her .. cheers!

Would you take a dog over this?

I did the pinnacles years ago. The rock felt solid on the ridge but the exposure was huge. Not a place to be on a windy day!

Great video , I done Ben Lui yesterday and feeling it but beautiful views

:-)

The visuals are great but the music unfortunately it fucks your ears up. Really good camera work though. Climbing Tryfan and the Glyders in winter is the nuts though and not for the casuals which is why it's the best time to climb them imo..

Its a great mountain traverse and very exposed in places but these cameras are a bit daft.

Lucky your bud didn’t catch a crampon on that tat hanging off the back of his harness. For anyone watching this, it’s a bad idea to glissade in crampons, it’s far too easy to end up catching a spike and going into a tumble. Even on an easy slope this can cause problems with so many sharp objects flying around. Better to take them off or walk down properly. Looks like you had a great day though and had great conditions!

How did uou abseil down? Did you leave some gear behind?

I've just done Quinag last Thursday ...it was hard!....but Suilven is very magnetic!

Fantastic! Thanks for the video :)

Nice. Madonna summit, right (4058)? Gran Paradiso a bit further on the ridge.

Great video of a fantastic hill............that music is horrendous though 🙉

When scrambling do you use your normal trail running shoes or do you change into climbing shoes when you do the scrambling?

That's a great film. What ace music too. What a day that was eh. Thks for sharing and getting me interested in doing it.

Great video, though ruined by the really annoying music!

Jesus, that's taken me back a few years and now wondering how I actually did that and my first Munro!!! Youth is a wonderful thing. Great video and music.

What an epic trip%!

Please stop putting unnecessary foreign nsmes on our mountains and ridges. "Crib Nantlle "

Cymru, how beautiful. Great vid , I enjoyed it. Perhaps lower music volume would improve the quality of your presentation. Stay cool

Certainly looks like an adventure! I love the snow and mountains but I am not sure about this! Sure the views make it all worth it!

I went to Assynt a few years ago. The most amazing place I have ever seen and I’ve seen a few.

Enjoyed watching this Alex, some excellent footage, The Lakes does have some exceptionally beautiful spots! Thanks for sharing 👌

Alex, Just found this lovely video. Checked my photos metadata and I was there and climbed the mountain the same perfect morning and afternoon. Very warm and incredible views from the summit. Perfect.

I spent my childhood making these mountains my playground, from the age of 10 onwards Dad and I spent pretty much every school holiday in the Ogwen Valley mostly sleeping in our car or tent. I emigrated to Australia for 9yrs and sadly couldn't get back for the last days of his life, we had many phone calls in those last few days but I sent a letter by special delivery in the hope he'd get it in time. Hours before he passed he read my thanks for making me into the man I am today and teaching me that life is an adventure to be lived to its fullest, it finished with me telling him I'd one day look for him as I retrace our steps. Nothing is insurmountable if you have the determination and no matter how high those mountains first looked to me we always got up and back no worries in all weather's... I credit surviving my own stage 4 cancer 33yrs ago and the anxiety caused by my sons suicide in 2020 to the character building we did there and now I'm back in the UK I'm looking to move to North Wales very shortly, below the Gliders and above the Idwal Slabs there's a place called "The Nameless Cwm" unofficially over 40yrs ago we renamed The Ashley Cwn after me... Thank you for posting this wonderful video.

I did this in the 60s. Is the wall between the summits still there?

Hello friend can you help you?

Hi alex, first time on your channel .. cool content .. love the varied shots and the captions are clear as well .. picture quality is great too ... easy to watch and enjoyable commentary 👌... look forward to more content.. i will subscribe 👍 🙏❤️👍🥾⛰️

Probably get more views if you toned it down with the stupid music.

Wow stunning view and I really enjoyed watching. New subscriber here from #RTBL

Spectacular scenery my friend, this is outstanding piece of art! 🔥🔥

Great production as always Alex. Another wonderful new outdoor experience. You had so many crazy highlights and views out there, nice!

Hey Alex, thank you for this awesome video and congrats on the assent. May I ask how much rope time have you done on the way up and down?

Loved this Alex, beautifully edited with a lovely soundtrack.👍

Am Bodach and no Aonach Eagach??

This is great! Beautiful shots, clear explanations, lots of Gaelic names and dramatic music.

That looked epic so jealous

It’s 28 degrees outside and I had to wrap up in my duvet and slippers to watch this video.

Great video Alex! I was there in June this year, what a place, I’d be surprised by anyone who’s been and not said “until next time”…🤙

Such a wonderful video of your adventure in the Alps Alex. I really enjoyed every second, so beautiful but adventurous at the same time. I thought about going to Chamonix this season but I am always afraid that it is overcrowded there. Anyways great work man, looking forward to your next one. Cheers, Mario

How would you compare this to Helvellyn, Mate?

This takes me back to around 1984. I did the traverse then. My friends and I stayed in the Ling Hut.

Llech Ddu is a hidden little gem of a scramble. The only thing as impressive as the ridge itself is the grand setting you find yourself amongst when you top out on Carnedd Dafydd 😊

Looks absolutely awesome! Great video!

Gulp! I did it many moons ago, about 30 years or so. If I had known what it was like I would have chickened out but I am glad I did it back then. I certainly couldn't do it now lol. I don't remember the vertical climbing, perhaps there are alternative paths that skirt round the pinnacles. It was certainly the scariest challenge I have undertaken. Thank you for posting this fantastic video. If I have nightmares tonight I will know who to blame!

Haven’t had the pleasure but looks amazing and so serene. Like most I’ve done the Glyderau, the scrambles, the horseshoes etc, but with time I’m finding the more isolated and unvisited routes more inspiring. Great video 😀
