Great one as always Murray, get those knees looked after, I had both replaced about 20 years ago and they are still working just fine. I am an 86 year "old fart" and used to spend my weekends on the hill. Watching your videos'keeps me young, THANK YOU. Peter McCulloch
Thanks Peter - have made my first wee hill ascent this weekend and knee was ok - nowhere near 100% though - just need to take my time:) The consultant told me after my last knee op that I will be getting new knees at some point!! - lets hope its not soon!! Hope you enjoy the videos Peter and thanks for taking time to comment - very much appreciated :) Take care and thanks for watching ATB Murray
Another classic video, i don't know how this channel doesn't have a 1 million subs, your videos are some of the best hillwalking videos on youtube. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Tommy - very nice of you to say so - however I still wonder how the channel gets so many views every week - I’m overwhelmed every time a video gets more than 1k views TBH 😃 so grateful for the support from everyone - it keeps me editing and getting the videos out (as well as everyone taking time to comment :) - very much appreciated:)
Murray wowwww it looked like Heaven threw out lots of Different colours of mixed paint all over to make all these stunning colours, when you got to the top of black coffin I was emotional I just could not belive what wonders of Scotland we have beautiful, just the ticket to blow away those down thoughts ,thank you to your lovely wife for giving you Brownie points ( you do realise you will have to return them ) look after that knee thankyou for sharing and the stars wow the stars where we live you can't see any because of the lights , take care luv Susan xx
Thanks Susan - the morning light on this day was spectacular- so lucky to have been up in the mountains on a morning like this one - let’s hope there are many more days like this to come in the hills 🤞 Take care and thanks for watching ATB Murray
Another great trip Murray, thanks for taking us along. "Enough Talkin` - Let`s Get Walking" Lol. About time you got some merchandise done with that slogan, badges, stickers and T-Shirts etc . ATB Dave.
Brilliant Murray. So rare to savour those conditions. Know about the knee trouble too. Thanks for the great journey. Colour co-ordinated kit cool too 😎 👌
Well what a day you had ......great photography showing off a Scottish wonderful winters day .The views were just spectacular. Thankyou even a proper look at your Steaming Boots .....!!! 🥰🥰🥰
Aaw thanks Murray, a great wee hike, what a stunner of a day. Please look after that knee or the Boss will be nagging you😉 take care till the next time Alioban x x
your comment "Getting high on the hills" is ever so true, addictive, exhausting, exhilarating and impossible to ignore and what is more is that it is all legal and healthy (as long as you get that knee looked at sooner rather than later). Keep climbing Murray and keep entertaining us please.
I was recommended your channel via a few youtuber (A Shropshire Lad) and I must admit, I've been mesmerised with the locations, high quality production and genuine enthusiasm that you create in your videos. I've got a big back catalogue to work through but it's definitely worth it! Excellent. ATB Andy
I absolutely love your videos, they make my heart lift and take me away to a happy place :-) The quality of cinematography and photography really show the mountains off to their best, I really feel like I am with you on your journeys. Thank you ever so much .....
You get too many green light/brownie point, passes these days. 😉 I get moaned at if I'm away, god forbid, 2 weekends on the trot. 😁 Stunning indeed Murray. Got to take they conditions when they appear. Few & far between this winter. As per usual. 😏
I have been gathering many many brownie points over the last few months !! (only because my knees knackered and Ive not set foot outside!!lol) Hoping to dispense of some of them soon though (fingers crossed!)
Hi Murray, what stunning light. Your dedication to your walking and subsequent videos is paying big dividends. Thank your wife for supporting you, this video is wonderful.
Superb Murray…..that van is a proper oasis and as usual your vlog is yet an other Inspiration for a day out on the hills in an area I am not familiar with….glad to see them boots steaming despite your dodgy knee which I hope improves in the near future.
Quality Murray, rest the knee, it will come good. First saw Am Batach in early 1980s great wee hill made better by a few pine woods in those days, made it look stunning when sunlit. Returned a few years ago, so sad some of the larger pine woods have been felled & the farm buildings going derelict. Came over the top of Am Batach from Ciste Dubh a great hill.
One of my favourites, climbed these hills in April in t-shirt weather, my profile pic is me on the summit of Ciste Dhubh. Great to see it with it’s winter coat. Fantastic as always. 👍
Thanks Linda - I think I watched your trip - did you have the dog with you on that one ?? its a great mountain and day out for sure :) Take care and thanks for watching ATB Murray
I am 10.51 in and had to stop to say this no 2 days the same with the light the colour of skies the colour of the light this for me apart from the nature the scenery the outdoors is the pull especially now I am getting older and this was a good light day for you
Wow, what amazing light on the hill indeed! We love seeing you get giddy at the weather conditions!😊. Makes the viewer right there with you, enjoying it almost as much as you!😊👌. Think this hike is what everyone dreams of with winter mountain hiking. Loved watching as ever. Ps we really chuckled at the father Ted reference🤣 . "Small...far away"🐄🤣👌. Hope you have a great weekend and we really hope that knee is feeling better now. Shell and Pete
Thanks Folks - it was a special day in the mountains this one :) glad you got the father ted reference - one of my favourite episodes that one!!lol Take care and thanks for watching ATB Murray
Thanks Jeg - tried the knee on Ben Vrackie at the weekend and it was still sore on decent - however the trail breaking through the deep snow was probably a little too much too soon TBH!! Take care and thanks for watching ATB Murray
Enjoyed this video very much as it is one of the closest mountains to my home. I loved the way you described Am Bathach as 'steep' because you're right, it's 'b___y' steep, as I remember well, particularly when you are a 75 year old like me !!! However, once on the top it's a great ridge route to Ciste Dhudh. Great photography and a nice keepsake for my TH-cam library now my hillwalking days are pretty much over. Keep them coming !! Best regards, Ian
Knees slowly on the mend - not been out in the hills for weeks now!! - hope to try it out again at the weekend :) Take care and thanks for watching ATB Murray
Another cracking video Murray, Kintail is stunning, i did these two many years ago in the sunshine, nice to see them with their winter coats on, always tougher in the snow but always makes for better pix, hope the knees are better now 👍
Literally a "Steaming Boots" production at the end there Murray ! Perfect weather, lovely day out. The "Met Office Surface Pressure Charts" page is useful for weather forecasting, it has a 5 day prediction of the developing fronts etc you can follow on the chart and is updated regularly. Hope your knee gets better. Perhaps could do some low level video hikes while knee recovers. ATB
The boots were steaming ! Tried out a wee hill this weekend and knee still not 100% but a lot better than when I tried it out last month - hope some more rest and physio will sort it :) I find the surface chart forecast useful but tend to look at the mwis ones - I’ll need to check out met office ones now too 👍👍
Hi Murray, fantastic Vlog, so professional and great to watch. Can you tell me about the Mammut kit you are wearing, be interested in the model name/details of Jacket, Pants and rucksack. Also details of your boots. Thanks and keep them coming Kevin
I really enjoy your videos. This one was a bit special as I have a great great grandmother Hannah MacRae almost certainly from Glen Shiel and her husband my great great grandfather John McRae who was likely from Gleann Lichd. So you started from the former glen and overlooked the latter gleann at the summit of Ciste Dhubh. And when I visited the area I poked around various spots in the area including the other ends of both glens and for some of my exploring I was parked just where you had your van. And the following year returned to the area with my grandson hoping for more climbing. Quite aside from that I appreciate the great technique you demonstrate in making all your videos. I do hope you take care to let your knee heal well. Keep up the great work as we admire it from Canada. We were in Scotland a number of years running before Covid. I know Mull isn't a convenient commute from Perth but I'd love some Mull.
Thanks Neil - its a wonderful area and it is always interesting to look back and see how our ancestors lived. Here are two videos from Mull if you are interested : th-cam.com/video/EOgrJQSiSoA/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/AKvweFem-mo/w-d-xo.html Take care and thanks for watching ATB Murray
@@ScotlandsMountains Thank you so much. I see your experience of Mull has been a bit on the wet side. On my first 5 day stay we had one sunny day in May. Next year we did a bit better is August which is a bit contrary to seasonal averages - in May. We had better luck in other areas.
Magnificent Murray! Thank you for taking time to film your hikes and showing us just how spectacular the highland landscape is. What a perfect day you chose too! This is something I can only dream of doing but it feels like I’m there with you when I’m watching. Absolute cracking video 🏴😍
This really did get my jealous hat on. Being down south, I've not had any wintery days out yet. Lakes has been minimal and I've missed it. Absolutely stunning trip. Those colours!!! Thanks again 👌
Thanks Jamie - the light that day was fabulous - a photographers dream ;) hope weather like it returns soon as its been a bit wild recently!! Take care and thanks for watching ATB Murray
As a fellow knee sufferer, I can confirm that downhill is the worst direction! Have you tried a neoprene joint support? - highly recommended. Absolutely glorious light and colours for your trip, which I'm enjoying vicariously with a small glass of 'Grouse and looking forward to my next virtual visit to a higher altitude ;-)
Hey Murray, Hope your knee is okay and not to troublesome. Another fantastic Vlog. I love watching your content each week. Would love to experience trips like this sometime. Richie
Wow Murray you never cease to amaze, fab video as usual 👌 👏 I travel to scotland from Ireland to do munroes with my brother inlaw who is from there and we never seem to get that kind of weather I suppose that's the luxery of living there you can choose when to plan a spectacular day in the hills, all the best👍
Murray Hello sir** been folowing and watching now for a few years!!! I would Have To say Reviewing This And taking It all In AGAIN** this Has Gotta Be One Of Or Indeed The Best Vlog Well Done You Know why I think that >???? Well YOU HAD A SMILE FROM START TO FINNISH and Ive never seen You So Excited And In Awe""" Excellent & Thanks Tc liverpool
Thanks Tony - glad I didn't film me grimacing with my sore knee lol - however the conditions that day certainly lifted the spirits - one of those fine winter days that only come along every now and again - a fine mountain day Take care and thanks for watching ATB Murray
Speechless Murray, just absolutely speechless. What a day and what scenery. I might be 300 miles away but your videos always make me feel like I'm almost there with you. Superb after a days work. As always thanks for sharing. Stay safe. ATB.
thanks - been off the hills for about 5 weeks now and been taking lots of new suppliments!! always take Cod liver oil but started on the Tumeric and Glucoisamine now too - I'll do anything to get them feeling better again!! hoping to try the knee out on a wee hill at the weekend - fingers crossed Take care and thanks for watching ATB Murray
@@ScotlandsMountains No worries. The above method works. I would say ice when resting in an evening (ice cubes in sealabls sandwich bags) the ibuprofen gel before bed magnesium oil in a morning. All the best 👍
Wonderful again Murray, snow on the Scottish hills, and the frost just really nice colour with the sun giving a generous helping hand 😎. Ps how do you manage to gain enough brownie points to get away for a nite ,🤣
Epic again, the white stuff really adds to it all. I must admit, I tend to follow your routes on the map whilst watching your videos, just to get my head right as to where you are, with not being a native. So many places I want to visit that I never thought of before, thanks to yourself and others I watch. Great video as usual, stunning conditions and perfect camera work👏..top job mate🏞🤘
It was a great day to be in the mountains Paul :) PS I also find myself map reading whilst watching some TH-cam channels (especially the long distance route ones) - sometime have to pause the videos so as I can find their location on the map before hitting play again 😂👍
With walks and views like this, it makes one glad to be alive. I would like to ask please, what were the jacket & trousers you were wearing? Many thanks.
That was fantastic Murray, had a great trip up there back in November.. it looks even better with its winter coat on! Bet that bypass path was fun with the snow on it 😂 Atb, James
Another top video! I wanted to point out the fact that you showed a part of you near the summit at the start and then went back to the start of the walk and during the first part of your walk you referenced the fact that you showed 'last night' first, and that shows some great preplanning and thought! Love it! Great work!
Tremendous thank you! I see you had cause to use your walking ice axe on this one. Do you ever use crampons on hikes like these or carry them ‘just in case’?

Lovely hike. I really need to learn to read the weather better. Love the pack matching the gear, looked like a modelling shoot 😂 ALB Murray 🏔
I try my best - next stop ... the Milan catwalk ;)lol
Take care and thanks for watching

Another top video!
I wanted to point out the fact that you showed a part of you near the summit at the start and then went back to the start of the walk and during the first part of your walk you referenced the fact that you showed 'last night' first, and that shows some great preplanning and thought! Love it! Great work!
Unless...... You recorded the bit where you referenced last night when you got back you your van 😂
I loved it and you’re comintrey
Tremendous thank you! I see you had cause to use your walking ice axe on this one. Do you ever use crampons on hikes like these or carry them ‘just in case’?
Lovely views, must go down well with a Scotch egg :)
