Does this terrifying ridge walk live up to its name? (The Devils Ridge)

- Hi all and welcome back to another adventure.
This time we were attempting six of the ten mamores starting from glen nevis over two days. We planned to camp at Steall Falls, the UK’s second highest waterfall. The first day we would climb two munros and the second we would tackle the Devils Ridge and the other four Munros of the trip. Did this ridge live up to the hype?
Hopefully you enjoy the video.

Brilliant stuff! Scotland is simply the best. The terrain is so diverse, chuck in the seasons & it's never the same twice. Keep it up chaps👍
Cheers mate, yeh Scotland really is incredible. If you get the right weather you can’t beat it
Good to see some hot fine weather in your video
Your videos are fantastic. Only just discovered them. Your love for the scenery is inspiring. Keep going: looking forward to working through them. Thankyou.
Thanks mate. That’s means a lot😊
Brilliant just breathtaking
Really enjoyed your adventure. Thank you guys.
Thanks mate, means a lot
Did this route on our honeymoon in 1995 in the snow. Beautiful place in the mountains, a fantastic experience. Well done, keep those boots busy!😊
Wow that must’ve been unreal in the snow, fair play
Great video, what a fantastic couple of days 👍
Thanks mate, that means a lot
Amazing views
Yeh we got super lucky with the weather
I loved you trip . It was great! I live in the Canadian Rockies, Jasper. I'd love to send you some pictures of trips my son and I have done these last thirty years. Cheers!!
I’m very jealous 😂😂 always wanted to visit Canada, I’m sure I will at some point in my life. The hiking in Scotland is great but Canada just looks incredible, I bet your trips have been amazing
Excellent video, very well filmed with great content.
That looked to be a great camping spot along from An Steall too.
Cheers 👍
The outro clip is absolutely beautiful, what a lovely way to finish the trip.
Thanks mate. Was a great camp, won’t be long till we hopefully get the same weather again 🤞
@@ScottishSummiteer aye mate, fingers crossed 🤞
It won't be long before I too am back up into my favourite country camping myself , can't wait 😃👍🏴
Thanks a ton for that video!
I did the Devils Ridge when it was covered in snow and it's been very interesting to see what it looks like in the summer. I am eager to see what you will put up to your channel inthe future!
Thanks man🙏 I imagine it was amazing in the snow, a good winters day is pretty hard to beat
Hello 🙋♂️.
Hope you are good !!
You said in the YT VID it was around 5pm (17.00) and you were hungry 😋 and
you both went for 🍟 chips - then, from
Ft William, you both walked back, passed the
YH and carried on till you reached the
Steel Falls - that was some
hike / walk 🥾 you must have been
knackered that night ??
I am familiar with that part of the
Country 🏴 and I cycled, walked,
camped in my Campervan 🚐,
however - if I have got your route
correct it was a pretty amazing
day you both had !!
I climbed BN and got lost in the fog
and snow ❄️ - however managed
to come off the BN (safely) and ended
up at the falls and walked back
to my campervan 🚐 which was
parked at the YH - was that tired
😴 💤🛌🥱 I slept with my kit
on - very hungry, but to tired to
make any food 🥘 till the next
morning !!
Well done 👍
Thanks 🙏

Nah we did a couple munros in that area and then drove to the chippy and back to the waterfall to camp. Would be a bit far to walk i think😂😂
Hello 🙋♂️.
Thanks for your reply.
It was very much appreciated !!
Ah’ ok 👌 I was thinking 🤔 it would have been a good old walk if you did try it….. I also loved the; Steel Bridge
it was a tad scary on the first cross, but fun….
BTW - I think 🤔 you have the determination to keep walking 🚶♂️ as part of your hobbies - may I cheekily and boldly suggest that you start thinking about taking walking poles (sticks) with you !! I know they are a pain - however, they will extend the years you will be able to walk on these AMAZING MOUNTAINS 🏔 in our beautiful Country Scotland 🏴.
The damage you are doing to your knee caps with constant pounding is pretty serious stuff.
It will eventually catch up with you and unfortunately may have a detrimental effect later on in your life and prohibit you from climbing !!
I also carry mine - but use them on the way down as this is when your knee caps take the biggest pounding.
Good luck - I might even pass you one day - big mountains ⛰ small world !!
Thanks 🙏
Take care and stay safe 🫶
James ✌️.
Great video. What good weather!. That route has been on my list for 30 years! I need to get back there and do it. 😂
Haha yeh it’s definitely one to do, one of my favourite walks I’ve done for sure. We got unbelievably lucky with the weather aswell, making the most of the couple days of sun we get each year😂
Great video mate. I might try it in September, good effort. Keep it up.
Thanks mate. Defos try it if you can, would highly recommend
I had the pleasure of falling of that bloody ridge many years ago when on winter mountain training, not recommended
I'm just curious, how hot was it exactly? I ask as an American who is living in the SW. Anyway, another beautiful video. Thanks for sharing your trip with us!
Aw was about 30 degrees celcius. So 85 Fahrenheit I believe. Probably not hot for you but we were too warm 😂
The Devils ridge? I can run over that in my Jim Jams
Fair enough mate
You found the most beautiful place to camp, that’s for sure, but those midges … 🫢
It was incredible, yeh I know 😂😂 the midges were horrible
