    Proper good that Scott 👍🏼 really enjoyed it. Nice balance of cinematic sand to camera stuff. Solid effort too… especially with the food poisoning. Looked a cracker mate. I’m counting down the days now. Few more weeks and I’m back out. Try and get something sorted. Cracking mate!!! 👍🏼 take it easy, Craig.

    Great challenge hike and you did well to Carry on after food poisoning. It ruined a trip to Knoydart and cut short my Sutherland trail hike too. Like you say 18 hours leaning over the loo while my pals were enjoying themselves.

    Hi mate, enjoy your videos. Would love to see one on the clothes you wear. It looks like buffalo shirt and alpha direct sweater? How did you get on with them on a long trip?

    • @itsmescottp
      @itsmescottp  ปีที่แล้ว

      I use a Senchi Alpha Direct 60 and a Patagonia Houdini.
      Works great.
      The Senchi is super breathable, then really warm when you put anything over it. 👍🏻

    • @itsmescottp
      @itsmescottp  ปีที่แล้ว

      I've got an Alpha 60 & Alpha 90 Senchi, both great but i tend to grab the 60 more often.
      Find the 90 too warm to hike in.

    Well done mate. You guys were motoring along.
    I attempted it in April and came down with either food poisoning or Norovirus. I was so bad I had to go home, was absolutely gutted. I got mine on day two wild camping just outside of Rowardennan. Did you guys drink any of the water or stop to eat anywhere? Just wondering if it was the same thing. 🤷 Well done for carrying on though dude. 💪

      So, just to clarify. I ate at the Clansman Bar before getting ill and then headed back to the Rowardenan Hotel to stay the night. Sorry for the confusion.
