Thanks, everyone, for watching this video. You can see part 2 here: th-cam.com/video/9YcIHFKCiTY/w-d-xo.html Also, a freakishly high amount of people are asking about my Bum Bag, so I thought it best to capitalise and make my first million from this Affiliate Link: geni.us/Seral7 and whilst I am pushing my luck, here is a link to my 2022 Photography Calendar, still available: thomasheaton.co.uk/product/2022-calendar/
Can we all take a moment to appreciate how much extra distance Tom must have put in over the course of this journey just walking back for the video camera.
What a journey! Couldn’t agree more about all that’s missed when travelling by car. It’s why I love cycling with my camera gear too - Great work as usual 👍🏻
@@Toma.s I swear James is slowly transforming into a more eccentric and clumsy Thomas Heaton. Who was once the 20mp small sensor pany guy who shot everything handheld going out on more local day shoots, now carries a large sensor, 61mp camera, shoot commonly on a tripod and is off on long photo trips 😂 not its a bad thing, love ‘em both!
I know this creates somewhat of an unhealthy benchmark for you in terms of what goes into making videos of this level, but these last two films have been AMAZING. Bravo sir!
Superb Tom - what an amazing three days that was - only to be bettered by the following days :) A great trip, I'd almost forgotten about the hurricane that blew through on Day 2!! Looking forward to installment number two next week Speak soon Murray
I hope you're really well and great to see you out there with Thomas, Murray 👍 I'll be looking forward to seeing your side of the trip too 😉 What a great adventure and some gorgeous shots from Thomas 👍 All the best from 'downunder' 👍👍
I will comment but a chocolate donut isn't going to make me like and subscribe. If it was an eclair on the other hand, then maybe. Just kidding. Superb video mate. Looking forward to watching more of your stuff 👍
Hey, Thomas! Just wanted to say a couple of things I am so proud to see you've grown so much on TH-cam!! I remember watching you something like 5 years ago when you pretty much just had started and it's insane how much both your personality and photography skills have developed! You used to be so shy in front of the camera, when people on trails used to walk past by, you didn't talk and gave them an awkward nod or something, but now you're just so energetic, open and likable as a person! Even though I am more of a videographer and barely do any photography, I just absolutely love watching your videos and they have inspired me to go out and shoot just random stuff for the sake of just being out and exploring. Thank you so much for all the hard work you've put into this channel, you're an amazing person!
@Thomas Heaton , Please try to create as many possible these kind of long hikes whenever you feel you go for a multiple day long hikes.. It heals so much of our anxiety and depressions as we face this new normal .. Thanks for being such an inspiration and thanks for your wonderful content.. Appreciate it.. 👍
I used to run photo holidays to Skye and it affected everyone the same way - they were overawed by the place. I go as regularly as I can, it's magical.
That storm was awful! But what a treat later that day and then the incredible views the next morning. I couldn't have made 16 miles a day with that scenery, I would have stopped to take photos constantly!
Journey's of a lifetime for those who can do it. Breath taking views along with stunning photography. Be safe and travel on my friend. Louis Ruth Photography
When I was in Vietnam, (I was in the artillery) the infantry hiked nine clicks a day, which is 9,000 meters. They carried five gallons of water and food for three days(can food), ammo, claymores, and flak jacket. Usually, new guys carried eighty pounds and they had to move up to at least one-hundred by four weeks. Machine gunners carried the M-60, and two to four hundred rounds of ammo. Their load was usually over one-hundred and forty pounds. There were two assistant gunners, who usually carried four hundred rounds also. Their load was about one hundred and twenty pounds. They told me, that the more you hike, the more you can carry. When I see you hiking around, I think back to those brave men, and how cool it was just listening to there conversations. Great video!🙂🙂✝️
My wife and I stayed at a B&B on Skye years ago. We knew that it included breakfast, but not other meals. Well, we drove onto the Island around noon on a Sunday and by the time we wanted to stop for food, we discovered that all the places were closed. Luckily, the kind people who put us up made sandwiches for us or we would have starved. Wonderful video, Thomas, and memories as a bonus. Take care, Tom Foord.
Wow. Stunning! I have to say, not only is it awesome to see you so enthused about the adventure, but your videos are really becoming their own incredible works in their own right. Well done, man! And thanks for sharing!
Oh Yes Thomas. You brought back some good memories. That bothy. Love Skye and I'll go back as soon as I can. Do it all over again and hike the skye trail. love from Germany, Jan
The Lookout Bothy! It looks so much different inside now, I visited that in 2015 when hitchhiking from Poland to Scotland for a month. There was 12 of us in total for the night, had to do some tetris arrangement but it was amazing! Two of us, and some people from Germany, Denmark, France and Norway!
Thomas I have been following you for years and I beleive I watched all of your videos. But this one was the best in a very long time. Its so inspiring and I just wanna drop everything and go hiking the mountains. So good.
Wow so glad to see you in my homeland with MURRAY!! who's videos/photography l absolutely love. Great video Thomas, Skye sure has super land/seascapes. So looking forward to the next episode. Thanks for all the effort you put in for our enjoyment Alioban x
Only one word comes to mind to describe this video - EPIC. What a trip. But I felt for you and Murray battling those winds. Lovely scenery and photos. Looking forward to next weeks episode. Take care, stay safe.
One of your very first vlogs all those years ago was Skye and I subscribed based on that, good to see you back and what an adventure with Murray, loved it.
Really loved this video for so many reasons. I'm a bit of a TH-cam addict in terms of my own hobbies and have followed you for a while for the photography. Combining hiking and camping, another 2 of my interests, make many recent videos absolute must-see. The cheeky taster of the Skye trip earlier in the week on social media had me, for the first time, actually planning to put time aside, make a coffee, butter some welsh cakes, and actually sit down like it's cinema night (I usually grab TH-cam time whenever I'm at a loose end, sometimes on my phone, laptop, PC or TV). I hope the dreaded and oft-mentioned 'TH-cam algoritm' doesn's stop you creating the type of content that brought all your subscribers to you in the first place. Fantastic work, thanks for the effort you put in :)
I enjoy watching your vlogs and they have challenged me to get out and capture the world through my eyes. Even tho I’m a city girl with no great peaks or breathtaking views on my local treks, I’m inspired to capture the things most people miss. A note to the accessibility of your camera and your bum bag. Great idea I’ve done this for many years due to the price tag of most kits out there. But have you ever heard of Peak Design and a product they call CAPTURE. An ingenious little gadget that allows you to keep your camera at your fingertips. I’ve recently bought one and I have to say it’s a game changer. Although I realize that a bum bag is the best options in certain conditions ie mist and rain but capture is perfect for a fare/any day with less drip from the sky. Thanks for doing what you do.
thanks for brightening up a grey depressing day, love Skye going back there in four weeks time, and by the way, put your Skye photos in a book, I'd buy it, thanks again
This was legendary - this’ll become a proper Thomas Heaton classic! A video that makes me want to get up, get out, and get photographing! Brilliant work Thomas, thanks for making this!
Fantastic. One of if not the best video you’ve made. I love Skye and have visited there umpteen times hiking, biking and photographing. Your enthusiasm is infectious. Murray’s channel is brilliant too. Looking forward to next week.
Living the dream brother. What I would give to spend a week walking around the Isle of Skye. As others have said this is definitely a bucket list location for sure. Look forward to the final half of the trip.
I remember walking across the Alps back in 2008 with a D70s and two lenses. Worked well, but I wish I thought of the bum bag idea then as there was a few occasions where it lived in the backpack. Great trip, topped off with a week's climbing in the dolomites with friends. Multi-day treks are just the nicest holidays, well, to me anyway! ;)
Always so amazing to see backpacking/photography videos like this because I don't think enough people do it. It's definitely a great way to immerse yourself in the landscape and it definitely shows in the photography. Thanks for the inspiration as usual!
Literally my two favourite you tubers. Unreal that they go exploring together. So so good. Murray’s videos, wild camping are epic. And you all know how good me Heaton is. So good.

Can we all take a moment to appreciate how much extra distance Tom must have put in over the course of this journey just walking back for the video camera.
Yes! I'll never understand where he gets the patience from.
And operating the drone!
@@joanegert4276 and stamina!
Already done.
What a journey! Couldn’t agree more about all that’s missed when travelling by car. It’s why I love cycling with my camera gear too - Great work as usual 👍🏻
Photography by bike is always a winner. Perfect balance between covering miles and taking it all in 👍
The guy that hates tripods comments a video of the guy that has taken 1 handheld photo in the last 3 years. Cool!
@@Toma.s lol so true :-)
These two should go on a hike together 👌👌🍷
@@Toma.s I swear James is slowly transforming into a more eccentric and clumsy Thomas Heaton.

sponsored adventures sound like a luxury tho.
@@doxfie. Sponsors like that don't come without a heck load of hard work. Any luxuries are well earned.
@@doxfie. did u see any 'luxury' in the video! The guy was literally on foot in the mist through breeze shooting photos and videos.
This is ticking all the boxes! Thomas Heaton, Scotlands Mountains aka Murray, long hike, Skye, 30+ minutes video :).
Superb Tom - what an amazing three days that was - only to be bettered by the following days :) A great trip, I'd almost forgotten about the hurricane that blew through on Day 2!! Looking forward to installment number two next week
Speak soon
Murray
Glad you enjoyed it. Looking forward to seeing your take on it 👍👍
@@ThomasHeatonPhoto might be a few weeks until I get my vid out :) looking forward to next weeks edit - :)
Awesome buddy
I hope you're really well and great to see you out there with Thomas, Murray 👍 I'll be looking forward to seeing your side of the trip too 😉 What a great adventure and some gorgeous shots from Thomas 👍 All the best from 'downunder' 👍👍
Great to come back to these videos after watching Murray’s ones over the New Year.
May the force be with you Skye walker.
Fairly certain I got married on the spot you camped on in the Quiraing. Such an incredible view
@30:11 this part cracked me up pretty good, love to see a person that enjoys his life!
I will comment but a chocolate donut isn't going to make me like and subscribe. If it was an eclair on the other hand, then maybe.
Just kidding. Superb video mate. Looking forward to watching more of your stuff 👍
Been to Skye so many times, climbing, photography, camping, poshing it up in hotels. Never get bored of going there.
That minimalist boat photo is mint 10/10
Hey, Thomas! Just wanted to say a couple of things

Blooming brilliant video . Awesome story , great images , the Isle of Skye and to top it off , hiking with Murray x
Love your Videos Thomas! Thanks alot for so much great content, really appreciated!
Oh boy, how inspiring!
One Thomas (& friend)
zero tripod (beside vlogging)
one island
2 pair of feet & shoes
=
unlimited adventure
These sorts of videos are the bread and butter of your channel. Always a joy to watch.
Boat at sea...PERFECT:))))
To get the perfect timing,
you have to put in the time.
Iconic / legendary scenery.
I think this is one of my favorite video/adventures you have posted yet! Love it!!!!!!
Best video yet, love this.
Excellent edit on this video, Thomas. It feels like an informal, produced TV series. Great job!
@Thomas Heaton ,
Please try to create as many possible these kind of long hikes whenever you feel you go for a multiple day long hikes.. It heals so much of our anxiety and depressions as we face this new normal .. Thanks for being such an inspiration and thanks for your wonderful content.. Appreciate it.. 👍
I used to run photo holidays to Skye and it affected everyone the same way - they were overawed by the place. I go as regularly as I can, it's magical.
Man... am I jealous.... There is no better way to really discover than on foot or bike... And Skye.... Love it!
Less than a minute in and we're well and truly mesmerized!
that campsite view at 17:12 is one of the most spectacular spots I think I've ever seen
The ship 4:43 reminds me of the movie Alien, at least twice the Nostromo is shot as a tiny ship in a massive space , it creates a feeling.
Loved the donut break!
What a treat it would be to have a Starbucks Latte and chocolate donut with you, especially in this spot!
A 34 minute video requires at least one coffee break but it was well worth watching. A great story line made it compulsive viewing. Thanks.
I rarely comment on TH-cam but the donut really got to me. A beautiful beach, latte, and a donut in all the beauty after a great hike! My oh my!
Nice trip in an area I know quite a bit. But Mr Scotland's Mountains as a guide, wow setup up well. Nice one.
Spectacular!
Epic adventure, what a surprise to see Murray, AKA Scotlands Mountains. cant wait till the next episode.
immense videography. It really makes you appreciate what we miss zooming past in a car.
That storm was awful! But what a treat later that day and then the incredible views the next morning. I couldn't have made 16 miles a day with that scenery, I would have stopped to take photos constantly!
Thanks for taking a 72 year old along with you, I enjoyed every step.
Awesome entertainment... Thanks a lot!
Wow what a walk qell done you
Great photography vdo presentation and trip. Beautiful drone shots beautiful landscape shots. Thanks for sharing this great adventure.
Ah... Perfect to start the day. The kind of video I like the most.
The hunger of the eye can never be matched by any camera.
Oh god, I miss Scotland and Skye :-) Thanks for bringing me back for half an hour.
I donut know what more people could ask for... chocolate donut and coffee by a stream... Great hike... a very picturesque place.
Journey's of a lifetime for those who can do it. Breath taking views along with stunning photography. Be safe and travel on my friend. Louis Ruth Photography
Love Murray's channel. One of my favourites.
Epic mister Heaton... Epic!

I'm excited! I've not even watched yet. Can't believe you guys got together! Both my most watched channels. Awesome! ... .... 👌
Two of the best TH-cam guys around, Murray’s channel well worth subbing too, he does great photography as well.
Earplugs for windy & rainy nights in a tent is must

Hand held, shooting on the fly! James Popsys will be proud! Seriously though, great video, thank you!
The foot spa, the coffee and doughnut would have been enough for me! joking aside what an adventure, well done lads!
Skye is the most magical place I've ever been..
Was here the week before when the weather was actually wall to wall sunshine. Nice one.
Crazy adventure…thanks for bringing us along!
4:37 now that would be a picture for my bedroom, so calm and dreamy . 😍. 19:31 indeed glorious.
Wow. Stunning! I have to say, not only is it awesome to see you so enthused about the adventure, but your videos are really becoming their own incredible works in their own right. Well done, man! And thanks for sharing!
Oh Yes Thomas. You brought back some good memories. That bothy. Love Skye and I'll go back as soon as I can. Do it all over again and hike the skye trail. love from Germany, Jan
To paraphrase the saying: if walking, you are in a place; when driving, you are passing through. Great feat and thanks for sharing.
One hike to make up for lost time?...awesome!
WOW! that's all I got. Skye is so beautiful!

What a journey! have not seen this kind of hiking and photography videos in at least one or two years.
What a beautiful and challenging journey rewarded by outstanding photos! Thanks for sharing
Finally you gave us the video we’ve been waiting for for the longest of time! Amazing video… We expect a lot more videos like this to come!👌

Came for the photography. Stayed for the donut. Great film and great trek, Thomas!
So much more than just a photographic video - well done.
This is such a high quality video. Immersive, will watch again.
thanks for brightening up a grey depressing day, love Skye going back there in four weeks time, and by the way, put your Skye photos in a book, I'd buy it, thanks again
Thanks for taking us along. The effort to just do the hike is one thing, but to capture it along the way. Wow!
Channelling Fototripper with that doughnut scene 😀
Excellent adventure. Always enjoy your collaborations with Murray

Thomas has been on fire lately.
I'm about 30 seconds into this and totally hooked. What a great adventure.
Absolutely phenomenal Vlog by you Thomas and hey to Murray :-) loved it .
