Camping on a Mountain (This is why I do it!!) - Wild Camping at Loch Lomond
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ต.ค. 2024
- Why do I go camping on the side of a mountain? This wild camping trip at Loch Lomond pretty much answers the question! Camping near the summit of this wee mountain in Scotland was amazing and the sunset, sunrise and starry skies (as well as a wee camp fire) were superb...

Morning skies like that feels like you've just won the lottery.
I really appreciate you doing a video on Cruach Tairbert. My dog was diagnosed with cancer last June and passed away at the end of September. This was one of the hills that we did together after his diagnosis, my vet ok'd me taking him on some final hills as long as they weren't too much for him. He had a great day and was running around like a puppy again. So this will always be a special hill to me. His last munro was Carn Dearg at Corrour. Thanks for sharing Murray I really appreciate it.
so sorry to hear that - but glad you managed out on a few hills with him before saying goodbye - cherished memories

@@ScotlandsMountains Yes memories I'll never forget. All the best bud.
The quality and content of this video is exceptional, and when it's one person doing everything, then it goes to another level. Sir, I admire your skills as a mountaineer, your passion for the environment, your artistic skills, and your technical skills in creating this video. Thank you!
Thanks Roger, very much appreciated, hope you enjoy the content

sorry to be offtopic but does anyone know of a way to log back into an Instagram account..?
I stupidly forgot the account password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me
@Louie River instablaster :)
@Elijah Atlas thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm trying it out atm.
Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Elijah Atlas It worked and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thanks so much you saved my ass !
I love this. Nothing I like more after a stressful day than lying in bed with a cup of tea watching videos like these
Who else would love to go for a walk with Murray and Gerry?
We would! Hey Murray any chance of a Steaming Boots meet up? will bring our own whiskey : )
Nope. I'd be horribly unfit compared to them. I'd meet them for tea and medals after though.
I would, but I live on other side of the North sea and my English is not good enough to communicate with Scotsmen.
I would love too! Myself and my husband are just starting out walking, we climbed the Pap of Glencoe in November. I was so chuffed with myself as I have a fear of heights and it's the first mountain I've ever climbed. Absolutely love these videos, you're an inspiration Murray!
There’s something quite nice I find being out on my own, well just me and the dog.
Terrific vlog as always ....the astrophotography breathtaking...great stuff.
thanks Douglas, had much fun on this adventure - hoping the weather settles sometime soon so I can get out for another wild camp :)

Awesome, God bless Scotland! The true holy land!
Fantastic Murray. Brilliant way of showing it doesn't have to be a big hill to still have a great experience. One thing that is way too low for me though is the temperature !! roll on the Spring !! Loving the astro shots, keep them coming.
Thanks Stevie, I have o disagree - need more snow and lower temperatures - been too mild this year !!lol Spring will be here soon hough - see you soon

Absolutely stunning Murray! I’ve been walking the hills for years (now retired) and you’ve just inspired me to spend more money! The views that can be had up there need to be shared and my old bridge camera just isn’t up to it. I love your ‘chat’ and your enthusiasm is infectious! Keep them coming 👍
Thanks Debbie, hope you enjoyed the vlog and that you have spent your money on some nice new kit;) enjoy using it when you can :)

One of your best videos yet and the 28 min run time fully justified. Makes me want to jump in the car and go there now. I'll add it my locations map for now though. Thanks for sharing.👍

Yes Murray photos and videos can't replicate the experience but are still great to watch.
Problem for most people is that proper summit camping is hard work, carrying all your camping and camera gear. ATB.
Scots Wildcamper thanks Eddie - I once weighed my kit and the camera gear was the same as the camping gear !! 😂😂. All worth it in the end though 👍

I'm with you man. Summit camping is really the only way to enjoy a sunset and a sunrise at the same spot. I've spent many nights at the top of various peaks here in the French Alpes and will continue to do so. Your video was amazing.
thank you, would love to experience it in the Alps too - what a place to wake up in :)

Loch Lomond has always been my favorite place in the world. Last week I was back in my little secret, happy place....what? no, I won't tell you where it is! 😁😁 Have to get me one of those twig burners, my fires are like bonfire night!

Another fantastic wee film Murray. What a great spot to spend a night. I will definitely put this hill on the to do list. Those views and astro shots were just stunning! That twig burner was superb! If you could point me in the direction where i might pick one up i would really appreciate it. Many thanks and all the best, Andy.

Epic Murray, what a lovely Sunrise, on the subject of cold feet, I use M&S lightweight merino wool socks and a set of medium sealskinz over them, when I'm fishing night sessions = toasty toes. Great vlog, ATB.

Fantastic video. What a spot for a camp. Your description of a post-apocalyptic landscape reminded me of the path up the Merrick a couple of years ago. The path had been obliterated by forestry felling. It was a trial, I'll tell you. Definitely not a joy.
Thanks Janis / this was an old video - struggling tk remember where I was without clicking and watching it 😂 hope you enjoyed it tho

Well that was a belter of a camp , and this is why we do it ⛺️👍🏻atb Dave

I really am enjoying these videos. Im in perth Australia and it's currently 29.3 a 9:28 in the evening. I miss the winter.
Those photos and the piano music just makes me keep coming back to this video Murray. I can tell just how much you appreciate the hills here in Scotland. Out of the wild camping uploads this year, nothing beats this one yet. The standard of filming wild camping trips has been set high by some people, but no one comes close to how your present your films. Well done, stay safe and we will all be back out soon. ATB Gaz.
