    Great video, Murray! I will NOT share it with my husband, though…his claustrophobia reaction would kick in with that tight squeeze section! It was fortunate weather you had there, keeping you fully away from the wind during the technical part of your climb. ATB, and can’t wait for the next adventure!

    That was really good!
    It’s like you started off in the spring and then it’s winter
    Those were some claustrophobic spaces you went through.
    I guess you have to watch where you’re walking as the summer footage looks really rocky
    Well done and a good nights sleep was had by all!
    Take care 🇨🇦❤️

    I had not had a scotch egg for about 30 years so because you keep going on about them I bought 2 last week. I managed with some difficulty to eat 1 with copious amounts of brown sauce and the ravens had the other. I'm with Gerry, pork pies win everyday of the week, the only thing scotch eggs are good for is rolling down the hill once at the top.

    @TheMarco99 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    That was excellent Murray. The one take away I got from this one was knowing exactly where the summit is. I had an unfortunate experience two years ago where I lost my bearings in poor visibility and slipped on a slab directly behind the north top thinking it was the summit. I'm glad I watched this now as I want to re climb this one. Much appreciated mate

    • @ScotlandsMountains
