Robin, a cracking walk in and stunning views all the way. A fantastic spot for the tents and it probably doesn't get any better than that! Would have the midges any day over ticks!! Wind is a tricky one to judge on the summit. A beautiful sunrise with fantastic clarity. #LeaveNoTrace 😊

Great video of a super area. We biked to the bit where you left the main track, and it still took us for ever, but luckily got weather like yours. Whoever rubbishes the Corbetts should be forces to watch this.
Real canny bonnet for the sun and you were so right, the views were stunning - not good about all those ticks mind. Absolutely stunning views along the tops but the summit views were breathtaking and the drone footage only added to that. You hit gold with that morning sunrise, so worth the restless sleep, midges and ticks. Great watch Robin, cheers Alan
Lovely. I've been looking at doing this and/or Beinn Lair soon. That's a lot of ticks. Great views of all of Torridon from this one, and looking forward to the Fisherfield views from Beinn Lair. Might take the bike for this one and follow the slightly longer track route.
Aw mate, that even today is the worst I've seen ticks. Must have been a nest nearby. Awful things, how I never got a bite, I do not know. Anyways BCA is a cracker, can see the advantage of taking a bike if you're after Beinn Lair too.
Was up Torridon two weeks ago , Magnificent place. 20 degrees on An T’s summit.....utterly wrecked. Brilliant video as ever. Slioch looked ace👍. Liked the hats 🤠, drone footage was epic.
Walk With Wallace 👣 ha! Enjoy. Gerry’s hostel perchance? It’s not the same since the old bugger died. He was a proper Radge 😂😂😂. I liked him fine mind, but woe betide you if he took a dislike to you. I think it’s his son that runs it now.
@@mountain_del1863 haha, I've heard lots of stories about Gerry. 😁 I hear his son is a bit of a grump though? 🤔 We've got a joint 40th and 2 60ths party at the Torridon YH. I can't see it going ahead with loads of different households being there in the dorms. Hope I'm wrong. 🤞🏻
Walk With Wallace 👣 yes I did, and that had my jaw dropping too. I’ve ever only been to Scotland once when I was a kid, I’m going to wait for midge season to finish and get myself up there 👍🏼👍🏼
I know Robin, I’m trying to get my business back up and running. There’s work but it’s down home in England which is a long way from Aberdeenshire. 🤷🏻♂️
Nice one sir.oaft they ticks, Heebie geebies.liked your fruit bag hacks. You should start dehydrating your own meals, it's so easy and so much cheaper. Keep up the good work Rich
You don't have many days like this in Scotland and when you have you have to go to north west. Great views, your friend Kevin is getting better with the camera! You are both like professional TV presenters now!:-]
Superb! What can I say Robin besides the fact you picked up some hitchhikers. Torridon was awesome. I had to get close up to the screen and put some glasses on just to get a good look. No you can't get much better at all mate especially with good company. Really enjoyed that one. Mark
Aye you's picked a braw day to go right enough. And aye a ken haha what a storm that was! Sheer biblical, thought where's Noah & his bloody ark when you need it. 🙈 that scenery though, is bloody breath taking. Well done 👏
Aye haha same! Or another bolt of lightning would strike and light up the whole back green 🙈 did you hear the MASSIVE bang? I've honestly never heard anything like it in my 33 years in the world. I shit a brick lol 😂
@@amandamurphy5758 ha, yes. I did, I was in a light sleep by then and my heart was racing when I heard that bang. 🤯 Oooft, I remember a similar thunderstorm when I was like 8 year old. ⛈ Imagine being on a mountain top during that.
Great job Wallace 👏 It brought back memories of last August and you got great weather ...I nearly lost my drones filming the summit it was so windy... great footage...Great watch 👌 Atb Alan gregory Adventures
@@WalkWithWallace ha ha 😂 hopefully and who knows might bump into each other one day Wallace on the mountains ⛰ Keep up the good videos 📹 Cheers Alan Gregory Adventures
Stunning clarity, you could see for miles. Like the Hat. Robin you almost bought a tear to my eye as you pointed out the Causeway, although Ive only been up about 5 Munroe's Ive hiked a few long trails and it looked familiar but I would not have realised I had walked through there without you pointing it out. All the best. 🍻
Awesome. Unbelievable views of torridon. Will defo be putting this in my list. Ticks seem to be full on this year too. Enjoying the more frequent videos by the way. Cheers
Cheers Leon, the views are stunning. Up there in my top 3 I reckon. 🤔 Nice one, I don't have a schedule to be honest, but aye if I'm out, I'll fire up a video. Touch would, no ticks seem to have hitched a lift back to Edinburgh. 🤞🏻
Now that's what I'm talking about!! If Innis and Gunn did Corbett camps... wow, what a trip! Bet you saw next to nobody as well, what a place! Nice one lads :-)
Thanks for that Robin, absolutely breathtaking scenery. Looked a superb hike and wild camp.Would love to visit that location next year. I hope your meal was cordon bleu at that price 🤪
😬😬😬😳, man, yez were gettn smashed by the ticks. Evil. You got a crackin' day for it, the views were epic 😎👏👏👏. Fantastic drone shots too😍. 'Marie, Marie' 🤣😁😂🤣 Shakin' Stevens song.....😁. Hey, did you know the fellah that wrote most of his stuff was from Edinburgh?
Old mate the song writer used to live in one of the roads close to Craiglockhart Primary School. I heard that from 2 independent sources so I'm happy enough with it being the truth- apparently his kids went to The primary school but went to some secondary for toffs. Hey, there were some seriously fantastic views to be had on this one - when the weather's with you😲😍😎👍
Some really great views up there Robin. It’s just a shame about the ticks on your walk up. The sunrise looks great in the morning and the weather was cracking too👍 Look forward to your next trip Robin⛺️👍
Brilliant one guys! Cracking views and lovely drone shots! Those blooming ticks tho! Think they've got an alliance on the go with the midges this year! Everywhere haha. Take care. Kris.
Wow! You weren’t kidding about the views Robin! Awesome! Again, quality footage throughout and skilful use of the drone. I’m not sure what I hate the most, midges or ticks! I hope you are tick free now! ATB Anthony 👍👍👍
Another cracking video bud. I think out of all the views in your videos this one might take the biscuit! What was the route up like? Looks steep in areas on the OS.
Hi buddy, if you're free Sunday evening I need to do a Microsoft Teams meeting with you, only really on, how to be educated on getting some bloody awesome drone shots, they were great chap, shame about the seat pad, but lucky find. One puff of those things and............. 'see ya' Great video again pal. Thumbs up from me ATB Dave 👍
Haha, cheers mate. To be honest I'm still a bit of a novice with the drone, but I just think what I want to shoot and avoid filming into the sun. I love placing the drone below me and doing the reveal shot as the drone rises above the crags.
This looked like a wonderful place . Shame about those darn Ticks though ugggg it left me itching just watching ! THanks for sharing Take care :D Teddy
Stunning video Robin , conditions were perfect the drone footage adds that quality touch . Dont know about you but I was cold in my LS at the weekend as the wind got up and whistled through those vents , only in the summer bag but on the plus side no condensation lol . I also managed to put a hole in my cnoc bladder !!! Hope your removed those little ticks off yourself ! atb Dave
Cheers Dave, I'd been saving this trip for great conditions and got them. 👌🏼 You know what, when the wind swung 180° on us, I was a bit cold with the draft coming in at the front. How do you find the tensioners on the guylines? The wind loosened all of mine and the tent lost its tautness. 😒 Pain about the Cnoc, you getting another one? Mine is the kick-starter version the screw top can leak under pressure. No ticks attached thankfully. 🤞🏻
@@WalkWithWallace My tensioners seemed ok to be fair , I repaired the bladder with a self adhesive innertube patch and seems to be holding ok . Glad you are tick free .
@@ClaireIona puree just adds a bit more to the dry wraps. It is messy, I licked my fingers afterwards forgetting I had sanitised my hands moments before. 😂
Probably a novice question, but what are your thoughts/precautions on drinking water from a running stream? From what I understand it’s generally safe to drink if there is no livestock and the source doesn’t look muddied? Any advice is greatly appreciated!
Hi Euan, there's always a small risk of catching a bug, but I have never had any issues with drinking straight from the stream. As you say as long as you're away from farms and livestock. As a general rule of thumb I'm happy drinking from streams that are 500m and above. Carrying a filter is worth it for extra peace of mind. 👍🏻
Cheers Dave, aye got the drone pretty much this time last year. Don't always take it with me, unless I know its going to be mint. 👌🏼 Thankfully no ticks seem to have hitched a lift back to Edinburgh. 🤞🏻
@@WalkWithWallace I never wear shorts, lift my arms up going through horse and bracken and always check when I get home. Now any dogs I've had have been tick magnets😁
Great spot, great camp. Can you have a Duo of (Lunar) Solos, I wonder? Your repurposing of supermarket produce bags is fine, but nothing, NOTHING, weighs "nothing".
Cheers Dave. 😁 Not a duo on this occasion as Kev was rocking the Lanshan. Not even a tonne of feathers? Haha, you know what I mean, the weight is negligible.
@@WalkWithWallace Ah yes - so he is! Shows just how close the similarity (i.e. copy!) is. Following your Lanshan Pro experience closely as you know - agreed it'll stand up in 30mph but I want to see it in more than that before I risk mine!
@@davids9549 yeah, they've definitely pinched the design from SMD, but that said there's some subtle changes that I actually prefer the Lanshan. Albeit SMD have made improvements since my old version.
Robin, brilliant video of Beinn Airigh Charr. The midges in Fisherfield can be biblical with no wind. Personally think the views from Beinn Airigh Charr are some of the best in Scotland, but slightly biased with family connections to Poolewe. The branch off after the Kernsary gate to the Ardlair path is definitely quicker than going round by Kernsary, the locals used that route long before the current road/track was built in the late 1970's. As ever keep up the brilliant videos you make. Cycle down Loch Maree if your interested. th-cam.com/video/NA0-FJXNmuY/w-d-xo.html&t
Cheers Ewen, I reckon you're right. I was blown away by the views on a'Mhaighdean, but I think BCA are even better. Beinn Alligin is another favourite. Will have a wee look at your vid too mate. 👍🏻
A superb video, outstanding views! Good to see the A team back together! Mark.
Thanks Mark. Stunning area isn't it. 👌🏼
Fantastic again Robin.

Not even a tonne of feathers? Haha, you know what I mean, the weight is negligible.
@@WalkWithWallace Ah yes - so he is! Shows just how close the similarity (i.e. copy!) is. Following your Lanshan Pro experience closely as you know - agreed it'll stand up in 30mph but I want to see it in more than that before I risk mine!
@@davids9549 yeah, they've definitely pinched the design from SMD, but that said there's some subtle changes that I actually prefer the Lanshan. Albeit SMD have made improvements since my old version.
Indiana Wallace ,lol.
🤣 🤣
Great video! I love outdoor activity too. 💖
Make more video. New friend here and let's build each other up 👍 stay safe!
Build me up buttercup...🎶
Robin, brilliant video of Beinn Airigh Charr.
The midges in Fisherfield can be biblical with no wind.
Personally think the views from Beinn Airigh Charr are some of the best in Scotland, but slightly biased with family connections to Poolewe.
The branch off after the Kernsary gate to the Ardlair path is definitely quicker than going round by Kernsary, the locals used that route long before the current road/track was built in the late 1970's.
As ever keep up the brilliant videos you make.
Cycle down Loch Maree if your interested.

Cheers Ewen, I reckon you're right. I was blown away by the views on a'Mhaighdean, but I think BCA are even better. Beinn Alligin is another favourite. Will have a wee look at your vid too mate. 👍🏻
