Amazing ⛰️⛰️⛰️⛰️⛰️⛰️⛰️⛰️⛰️ ..one of the best videos I've ever seen on here,looked to be an amazing if not tiring trip but the views were out of this world! 🏞️..I'm sure I'll watch this a time or two that's for sure..thanks for sharing Robin.
Cheers Andy, really appreciate your comment. 👍🏻
It was a top trip this one, the 3 of us were shattered though afterwards. 😁
Looks mega! Great footage. Nice one.
Cheers mate, loved this trip!
Like no.100, what an achievement Robin, real pleased for you and great to see you shared the same brilliant weather I had over the Lakes at the weekend. We are never too old for schoolboy errors, I am 65 and ran out of water of in blazing heat on Sunday 🙄. The rock and shale to the summit of Munroe No.1 looked a rough climb up but stunning scenery, amazing 360 views. Magical sunset and that sunrise was none to shabby either, you deserved both! I loved those clouds coming in over the tips, real mystical feel to it and brilliant achievement for you both. Great watch and so pleased I waited till I could watch the whole 22 + minutes cheers Alan
Cheers fella, wonder when we'll get another weekend like that? At least you'll be able to grab midweek good weather soon. 😁
Oooh yes you need the chippy sauce! I’ve converted my London fam to 😁💖
Love your hat
🤠 Cheers Claire. Chippie suace is amazing. I buy it in for the house too.
most grateful amazing thank you
Cheers Trig. 😎
I love the homages to hermit hill! Very well played chaps!.. God bless him. A long time subb. Loving the mock Italian. Roastio el toastio🤣👍
Cheers Fraser. The 3 of us were big Hermit Hill fans and miss his contribution. So it's nice to put in wee tributes. 😊
@@WalkWithWallace yeah,a real shame about Andrew... I still re-visit his films and they never fail to entertain. If I ever do start filming my wildcamps I'll be sure to have a orange poly-bag in there as a wee nod to the Hermit of the hills. Keep up the great content and long may it continue 👍
@@fraserconnell21 yeah, I drop into his channel too or TH-cam will suggest one of his films. Kev and I did the Sainsbury's bag tribute too in one of our bothy trips, carrying in beer and firewood. 😁
Thanks again mate. 👍🏻
The views look stunning Robin. Well done for doing so many in such a short period of time.
Cheers Sue. 😁
We were really lucky with the weather, couldn't have been any better to be honest. 👌🏼
Robin, well done guy's what a great trip and record of The Fannichs... magic stuff. Cheers, Charlie
Cheers Chaz, it was good to get those views 2nd time around. 😁
Hi Robin! Just wanted to drop a comment to say that I've recently started watching your videos and I'm enjoying them so much: this one has been my favourite so far. You have really inspired me to start hiking and camping (I'm based in Edinburgh at the moment) after lockdown is over. Watching these is so amazing but also giving me a bit of cabin fever at the moment, can't wait to get out and explore Scotland a bit more! Cheers
Hi John, thanks for the comment. I really appreciate it. Think this one was my favourite of 2020 for that few months there was no restrictions.
At least the Pentlands are nearby at the moment. Any ideas where you'd like to visit after lockdown?
@@WalkWithWallace so many places I'd like to go, would like to have a go at doing the Arrochar Alps and haven't yet been to the Cairngorms
@@johnfrancis7800 Arrochar is a good place to start. Cairngorms are fantastic.
Really good,some cracking views you got there..
Cheers Peter. 👍🏻 😁
An absolute beast of a couple of days you had there! stunning views all 360. nice one man
Cheers, it certainly is a beast of a route. Wouldn't attempt that in a day.
That weather is every photographer's dream...quite jealous. So beautiful. Oh, and you have a new fan...my dog Kye couldn't stop watching. Actually, it might be the other dog she was interested in...lol
Haha cheers and I'll pass that on to Gracie too. 😆 🐶
What superb conditions Robin. Days like that are meant to be treasured....and sustain us when the weather is grim. It's been a good few years since I did a Munro and since then I've spent too long being softened up in the Pennines. Let's see what next year brings perhaps. ATB, Chris
Definitely Chris, those conditions don't happen often. 👌🏼
The Pennines might not be as shapely as some of the Munros, you'll still accumulate decent mileage and ascent.
Wawoow ,good projek sir...
Thank you. 😎
What a weekend mate 👌👍 Stunning drone footage and great video that will live long in the memory.
Cheers Kev, good to get another trip in. Roll on the next one chief. 😁
Great watch mate. It's amazing to see how barren your part of the world can appear. Although green, and quite lush the lack of trees make it look like a waste land, albeit a beautiful one.
Awesome views again. I would have collapsed after the first hill...lol
Thanks buddy, appreciate your comment. 😁
I agree with you as actually Scotland used to be carpeted in trees 100s of years ago and there's only small reminants left over. I'd like to see more trees planted.
What fantastic weather you guys had......
ATB
👍🏔
Cheers Disco Dave. 👍🏻 😁
Great video , on my to do list , well done guys 👍
Cheers Brian, it's a cracking hike. 👌🏼
Absolutely mint when you get days like that, had a stunner in the Lakes a couple of weeks ago. Beautiful up there mind, stunning scenery, great video 👌
Cheers David. Quite rare when everything is perfect like that isn't it 👌🏼.
Excellent cat at 0.14!
That's our George. 😺
Good video Robin. Really enjoyed watching that. Thanks Steve 👍
Cheers Steve. 😁 👍🏻
Dearly me, I’m wrecked just watching that......some vid Robin. What an undertaking, some impressive ascent stats too.........You stole the weather and the clouds were fab. Gotta be Epsom salts and radox after that exped. Brilliant 👍👍 drone footage ace too.
Cheers Del. 😁 The weather was better than expected. 👌🏼
I was straight on the foam roller when I got home to iron out the sore legs.
What a fantastic film! Love the informality but also very useful for anyone wanting to get some Fanny action.
Was that a typo there? 😳😂
@@WalkWithWallace Not exactly ... just using a cheeky abbreviation I learnt from some Munro Meanderer renegades. Pure as the driven snow me. ;-)
@@2manyY haha 😂 seen what you done there.
Nice one Robin. The weather was great last weekend. This looks like a lovely location to spend a couple of day’s. Always good watching you and Kevin wondering around Scotland👍 Looks forward to seeing your next trip.👍 ATB Gaz.😎
Cheers Gaz, we pretty much nailed it last weekend eh. 👌🏼 Kev moving house soon, might not see him for a while... 👀
@@WalkWithWallace cheers Gaz..Bianca just went 'good' Rob 😁 Prob no get far anyway if we get locked doon again. 😏
@@Kev_Russ 😂 things she does to keep you hame.
awesome couple of days there fellows, heading up in a couple of days but just for two of them so a short day for me. Sgurr Mor and Beinn Laith Mhor Fannich.
Cheers Willie, hope you get similar weather to us. Are you using the new hydro track route? Some other hill walkers mentioned that to me.
@@WalkWithWallace I am coming in from Loch Droma and onto Beinn Laith Mor Fannich and then onto Sgurr Mor. Not sure if I am coming down after it or popping over Carn Na Criche. We will see how the legs are feeling.
@@williejack3695 aye that's the route I was thinking. 👍🏻
What an adventure! 😁
Cheers DoW. Looking forward to seeing all the #cleanupyourmile videos. :)
Spectacular views thats proper camping nice one
Cheers Robert. Can't beat a summit camp like that. 👌🏼
Extreme walk, Robin. The clouds as you alluded to made for some spectacular views. Great effort 👍
Cheers Colin, I genuinely thought that was us clagged in, so it was a treat to climb out of the cloud. Doesn't happen too often. 👌🏼
Amazing filming and photography - absolutely stunning - and I could feel the effort you put in to do those climbs too 🥵
Thanks Zoe, I thought I replied to this. But no comment showing up on the laptop. Weird.
Fabulous filming on day 2... quite excellent trip. 10000 metres though.. perhaps too many mushpoo’s?
Haha, that or the thin air at 10000 metres. 😁
Another great video Robin. Loved to see the chippy sauce! Must make it back up to Edinburgh soon!
Thanks Gideon. Can't go wrong with Embra chippy suace either.
Well done guys, the drone footage was spectacular. Superb views.
Cheers Phil. Hope you're well mate. 👍🏻
@@WalkWithWallace im good thanks Robin, been following yours and Kevin adventures.
@@2407ewan been up in the Lakes much this year?
@@WalkWithWallace a few times but there's nothing like Scotland for walking.
@@2407ewan agreed there. 😁
Those are the kinds of days we dream of,
What a trip you jammie bandits 😫
I’m not jealous at all...much
👍😎😎😎
Aye you've got to grab these forecasts when they come around. 😁 👌🏼
Nice wee bit of Head For The Hills there with the backpacks. Bless his soul. You’ve entitled this video accurately, Robin! That was quite epic indeed. I’m sure this hike would have killed me but everything looked so beautiful and you’ve captured the stunning views perfectly! Did you try the Scottish Mushpoo?! I miss Scotland already, I hear the Highlands is calling. Cheers, Mari
Chuffed a few folk have recognised the tribute to Head for the Hills. 😁
The word epic is a bit overused these days, but I felt on this occasion, it was acceptable.
When you next up to Scotland? 🏴
Cracking video mate, stunning views, atb 👍
Cheers Paul. 😁 👍🏻
Well, very awesome of you Edinburgh lads that Robin. You gave it some - cool stats there mate. I do wonder why boulders are where they are and not at the bottom as you might expect. There's an answer no doubt. As for the fell runners I guess you gotta fell run. All in all a fit bunch you guys - beautiful views and a grand tour. Mark
Cheers Mark, I'm sure a geologist could give us the answer. I reckon the tops have been broken down over the many years. 🤔
My knees would be knackered if I ran the hills, full respect to these guys. 🏃
@@WalkWithWallace A pleasure Robin. Yeah they've sussed it - well a great deal of it at least. And you're probably close. I to am in awe of them runners.
Great video guys,well done.Stunning footage and love all the banter.😃👍
Cheers Andy. 😁 👌🏼
Guid lads, guid!! Looked tough and very warm! Great views and worth the pain by the looks of things. 😀🤘
Cheers, my knees might disagree, but definitely worth it. 😁
Nice one Robin, the clouds were my fave part. Love the drone shots over them. Very nice! Good effort on the distance, must have been knackering haha! Cheers! Kris.
Cheers Kris, I think my knees have just recovered. 😁 The clouds was my favourite part too, wasn't expecting that.
Beautiful weather! And a brilliant video. Really enjoyed it, looking forward to doing these ourselves soon now. The floating trail star shot was reallly cool btw!! Top stuff as always 👌🏼
Thank you, really appreciate the comment. 😁
It's a cracking route, you'll love it. 👌🏼
Wow epic well done - atb
Cheers Dave. 👍🏻 😁
Good stuff robin. Fantastic place for the Trailstar 👍🏴⛺️
Cheers Alan, with the deer keds kicking about, I thought I might have brought the Trailstar out too early. 😁
Looked like a toughie but well worth the effort! Really some stunning scenery and loved the drone footage. The clouds were amazing! Some 'comedy' moments too - good stuff! 🤣 BOOM! 💣😉😂
Think I might have said "boom" a few times. 😂
Amazing content! ⛰⛰⛰You make me want to go hiking. So thanks.
Thank you. 😊 👍🏻
Cracking adventure folks - really enjoyed that - what a cracking weekend it was 👍 good effort
ATB
Murray
Cheers Murray. The knees have only just recovered from that. 😁
Superb. Looked like a great couple day’s on the hills. And you had weather to match. Bet you were done in after that one. Nice one chaps.
Cheers
Cheers Leon, aye was knackered on the Monday. Texted the gaffer on the way up the 9th Munro for Monday off, she said yes. 😂
Walk With Wallace 👣 good call!
@@NameisLeon lucky to have an understanding boss. 😁
Walk With Wallace 👣 Thats always good. Am lucky I work for myself. I can tell my boss to get tae whenever I want!
@@NameisLeon haha. Ideal mate. 👍🏻
Absolutely stunning, was thinking of doing some of these this weekend but decided to Creag Meagaidh circuit instead. These are definitely on my to-do list now after watching this
Cheers RS, it's a cracking big day/weekend if you do all 9 Munros.
Creag Meagaidh circuit is decent too. 😁 👍🏻
Outstanding! The clouds and inversions were incredible Robin as were the views. I take my hat off to you sir, nine Munros? I don't think I could've done one in that heat! Lol!👍👍👍
Cheers Tony. MWIS was hinting towards some inversion conditions and they got the weather spot on. 👌🏼 🤠
Well Robin that was a great film , the views and the clouds rolling off the mountains probably one of your best I would say . A lot of miles on this one mate obviously the 10000m altitude was affecting your speech lol . We don't get many perfect conditions days like that very often .. TFS atb Dave
Cheers Dave, it's certainly up there I reckon. Haha, I had to laugh editing the video when I heard that. 10,000 metres wtf. 😅
Excellent video Robin, a top weekend ..tough but worth it . Wee Gracie slept most of Monday and i'm at work for a rest now lol ..Looking forward to the next one mate ..cheers Stevie
Cheers Stevie. 😁 Looking forward to seeing your version next.
Brilliant! defo something to aspire towards! enjoyed that...
ATB
Paul.
Cheers Paul, you still do the Fannichs yourself?
@@WalkWithWallace Yeah, I have been cutting my teeth close to home but now that I have my fitness up I am planning some bigger walks next year. With 230 Munros still to do I am spoiled for choice! Enjoying watching your videos though.. working my way through them slowly and gathering tips along the way! Any tips for getting your content more widely viewed?
@@PAADVENTURES1 tough one that, good thumbnails, searchable titles, but interesting too. Use your keywords, but only those that relate to your video so you don't confuse the search engine.
Share on other platforms Twitter, Facebook groups and Instagram. Don't over share and always engage with those who take the time out to comment. Ask for subs during your video, either verbal or by text or graphics. Don't overdo that either.
Look at your TH-cam analytics, particularly audience retention, if that's under 35% then aim to make your videos slicker.
Takes time, but watch TH-camrs like Nick Nimmin and Brian G Johnson for loads of tips.
@@WalkWithWallace Cheers Robin! good advice..
Paul.
@@PAADVENTURES1 no probs mate, just remember that it's an endurance, not a race. 😁
I enjoyed that . Your video production is coming on a treat, upping your game sir.
Keep up the good work.
Rich
Cheers Rich, appreciate the positive feedback as I made a conscious effort to film a bit more than normal on this trip. Always a fine balance of making sure the filming doesn't interfere with my enjoyment on the hills. 😁
@@WalkWithWallace I especially liked the arty farty shot of the tent pitch hahha.keep them coming
@@Richmc1981 😆 my missus liked that bit too.
Well done guys on another cracking trip, I've done these munros twice now but never managed any more than three at a time. You all looked really knackered after that and well done on the realistic groaning sound effects when hoisting your packs on. I'm an Edinburgh guy too but you can keep the chip sauce, red sauce for me every time. cheers.
Alan, that's sacrilege putting red sauce on a chippie. 🤯
Nice to see what the Fannachs look like,I saw hee-haw on these 9.
That seems to be a common theme by the way. 👀
Looked stunning. Nae chance I would do this in a wanie, over 2days defo way to go. 👌
Agreed. It's an awfy big day that, couldn't enjoy it in a day.
Fantastic. What an adventure. Catching the right weather for the right walk is a rare occurrence but you caught it there. Another very inspiring video. Might aim for that one September 21 and keep fingers crossed for similar weather!
Cheers mate, like you say it's not often everything clicks nicely for a summit camp. 👌🏼 Would you do all 9 with a wild camp too or break them down into smaller trips?
Ha ha I’d try to do them in one go and camp to save on multiple trips away...also the challenge factor. Need to ask me nearer the time though as I’m still in the Pentlands and Moorfoots training up :) First Munro day walk next week...
@@stewartmackay2128 here you can build up some decent mileage in the Pentos and the Moorfoots. I took the missus up Blackhope Scar years ago, need to go back. What Munro you got lined up?
Indeed, I knocked out a 12 miler in the Moorfoots on Sunday on all sorts of poor ground and bogs so distance wise getting there. Building the kit up too. Ben Chonzie is the plan for next week. Knock off the closer, plainer ones first. Tend to just lift the routes from walkhighlands. Next up is Ben Vorlich.
@@stewartmackay2128 Walkhighlands is good for that, but if you want a nicer approach for Ben Chonzie then look at the route from Loch Turret too. 👍🏻
Nice one mate and went better than my latest trip. Atb
Cheers Raymundo. I'm Intrigued to see where you ended up. 🤔
Tremendous. Fired that onto the TV right after big Bojo and Nicola delivered their misery. What a trip, brought back some good memories! Cheers 👌
🤣 What you mean after? Get them on the catch up. Like Iain said in the comments, these are underrated mountains. Cracking traverse. 👌🏼
@@WalkWithWallace 😂😂😂 my sister and husband wanted to watch it first 🤦♂️. Then you were prime time viewing with the family, making us all jealous!
@@jamesbell6889 😂 hopefully we cheered the mood up after BoJo and Sturgeon delivered their announcements. 😁
@@WalkWithWallace 10/10 for morale boosting 👌 (as I quickly pack my bags to leave their house in the morning). Seeking out some quiet beaches with the tent down towards the Mull of Kintyre. Wee change from the hills 🏖️👌
@@jamesbell6889 ah nice mate, I'll look out for your Tweets to see how you get on. 😁
Taps aff weather!👍
Probably the last chance this year. 😁
17:40 1903m !!? I can tell it's been a long edit... 😁 Keep up the great content. 👍🏼 🗻
Arrgghh, thought I got away with that typo. 😂
The 9 and 0 are the wrong way around. Should read 1093m. 😚
@@WalkWithWallace Not to worry, I didn't spit out too much Whisky, and it actually makes for a good screen cleaner anyways... 😁
@@allieandmaria That's a relief, can't waste any whisky. Think I'll pour myself one now too. 🥃 #slainte
Truly a cracking adventure. Loving the clouds and all the inversions etc. Some going that up those tops. A 10,000 metre one too 😂 youre good with that camera. I’d even say for a vegetarian Wallace you’re an evil shot 😉 enjoyed that mate. Great content. Good hike. Tents good craic. It’s all there. Atb 👍
Cheers Andy, glad someone picked up on the Trainspotting line. 😁
Walk With Wallace 👣 whats trainspotting ?? 😂 😝 😉
@@AndyWardle it's a scandal Franko. 😁
Edinburgh chippy sauce?! Looks like you guys where blessed with the weather! The audio quality is pretty darng good on ya new cam is this just the one built in? That camp, inversion n rise was magic bro 🤜
Cheers mucker. Edinburgh chippy sauce is amazing. If you're ever up here, try it. 😁 The audio to begin with was the Rode Wireless Go, switched to the internal audio before getting to the first Munro.
@@WalkWithWallace sounded awesome! And looked even better. Cant belive no one recommended chippy sauce when i was on the SNT.. I defo will never eat a munchie box or deepfried pizza ever again haha
@@Impalaontrail munchie boxes are amazing. Deep fried pizzas though. 😂
@@WalkWithWallace i think id literally die if i ate one now! I had fish n chips on my last hike and very nearly s**t me kegs while walking out of town hahaha
@@Impalaontrail jeez, I used to live on deep fried pizza at lunch time as a kid, straight down to the chippy for a meal deal. 😁
Nice video boss, admire your efforts for ticking off those munros, love the tarp set up, great drone footage aswel 🤜🤛 ATB Dave 👍
Cheers Dave. 👍🏻
It was a tough shift, but worth it mate. 😁
@@WalkWithWallace it certainly looked worth it chap 👍👍

Scandal! 😂
Cracking video Rob really enjoyed that I must say them packs looked heavy 😂😂😂 jokes aside well done lads and dog great achievement absolutely stunning location and the weather was kind for yous did you do a loadout video for this trip would like to see what you carried thanks for sharing atvb jimmy 😎😎👍👍

Hiya Robin, I've no commented for a wee while cause I've been a bit busy. Class video 👌 always enjoy watching your videos. Always thought I recognised Kev, but after seeing this video.. it appears he's my auntie Magis neighbour 😂 when you said a while back yous were close to Magdalene, you wereny joking lol 🙈
Hiya pal, your absence from the comments section has been noted. 😂 Hope you're well and had a guid Christmas and New year. 👍🏼
Small world eh. 😁
Cheers Robin, have been my mum's full time carer these past few months, so just haveny had the time. I'm as well as can be thanks, hope you are too! Christmas was amazing, definitely the one I'll remember for the rest of my life, unfortunately for sad reasons though. Hope you had a fab Christmas and the new year brings you the best eh luck! And aye, it really is a small world x
@@amandamurphy5758 sorry to hear Christmas wasn't great. 😔
I'm okay at this end, kind of lost motivation a bit. But can't complain too much.
I met Kev's neighbours when picking him up from his old gaff, he's moved away to the sticks now, living the countryside life. 😁
Christmas was awesome, but it was my nephews first and my mums last 💔 bittersweet! My Auntie was the bottom flat with the black Lab, I messaged her when I realised yous were ootside her hoose 😂 and she said that he moved at the end of last year. Mental eh 🙈 also feel like a fanny cause its like I'm starstruck 😂 x
@@amandamurphy5758 haha, we're the dynamic duo, to be expected. 🤩 Seriously though, it is weird when you discover how small a world it can be. 😁
I was one of the blokes that bumped into you, we did the 9 in a day, that walk out...... say no more!
I’ll be editing a video for the full day too, dropped you a wee sub 💪🏼, I’ve got an Aonach Eagach video coming out tomorrow with a 360 camera 😁
Was that just before Beinn Liath Mhor Fannaich? You must have walked out in the dark? 🤔
Walk With Wallace 👣 yes! Must say thanks very much for pointing out that there was fresh water on the bypass route! The 3km in a bog with no light, after 13hrs of walking, a patience tester shall we say 😁.
@@allydeas nice one mate, I'll look out for the notification for the vid. Aye we were chuffed to find that water source too. We thought you'd be walking out in the dark 😅
@@WalkWithWallace as soon as you said 4hrs for the walk out I knew we were doomed!
@@allydeas 😅
Certainly was epic guys . Those packs must have been getting heavy next you'll be saying you hate hills and you want to get home for a Pizza and coke. 🤣👍
Cheers Dave. Packs thankfully got lighter. Consumed some amount of food keeping ourselves fueled for all that ascent. Deserved that pizza and coke afterwards. 😋
Love all your vids Robin,this is my favourite though. One question, what exit route did you take from the final peak back to the car park? Cheers
Cheers Steve, we headed off directly north towards Sron na Goibhre then down towards Loch a' Bhraoin. Don't make the same mistake as us by going to the lochside, it was a nightmare. Go through the woodland per Walkhighlands route. 😂
Hey Robin. Wow what beautiful scenery. I live in Surrey and it’s a bit built up here, always roads and planes. Catch up on #cleanupyourmile. ATB Graham(Grays Outdoors). Ps. Have sub’d.
Hi Graham, cheers for dropping in. 😁
#CleanUpYourMile is a great idea. Hope we get a few more involved. 🚮
You did well to get Sgurr Mor cloud free. It's never cloud free! Love the Fannaichs.
I broke the Fannichs up in 3 hikes first time around, and didn't get many views at all, so I know what you mean. 😳
@@WalkWithWallace Massively underrated hills IMO. The walks in and out are boggy but it's brilliant walking up top.
@@HighlandFifer they're not hills you hear a lot about, perhaps overlooked for An Teallach, Fisherfield and the Beinn Dearg group. 🤔
Another brilliant film. You guys order that perfect weather in advance.. lucky bu#gers... lol. Well done.
Definitely. Sitting tight for that trip. 👌🏼
Cracking video mate! Are those Black Diamond poles? I think they are the same ones I have lol.
Just noticed later in the video that they are in fact the same ones lol.
@@holdyourcolour1987 Haha, yeah you beat me to it mate. BD Trail or something like that. Got them half price of Wiggle.
@@WalkWithWallace Nice ! I think I paid £70 for mine about 3 years ago but they're still going strong lol.
Localish to me. I've done the Corbett to the east Beinn liath mhor a gibbhais Li and Am faogach to the north west , as well as Fionn Beinn to the south, but not done the main ones yet. Looking at a camp midway but approaching from loch glascarnoch. Did you go from loch Fannich?
I took the missus up the Corbett a couple of years ago we spotted a goldie at summit. 🦅
A camp midway is definitely the way forward, our campsite felt like a natural half way mark. We started from Loch Glascarnoch.
Another cracking video, really enjoy your videos they’re inspiring me to get started. As I’m brand new to camping/hiking can you offer any advice on apps you use to help you navigate/plan your trips?
Thanks
Thanks Stewart. I use the free mapping on www.walkhighlands.co.uk to plan and sometimes download their GPS routes on to my phone. I made this video, earlier this year, about the apps I use on my phone too:

@@spoof415 nice one mate, hope you find it useful.
Awesome, thank you. Paggard? Newbie question - can you take water off lochs or does the peat not filter out enough?
Cheers mate, paggered means tired/exhausted. I try and drink out of running streams, but I'll take water from lochs too no problem, but definitely filter or boil. 👍🏼
@@WalkWithWallace cheers for the reply. I use a Katadyn but wasn't sure about the peaty water, thanks for confirming.
@@philip771 I've heard some reports of the Katadyns becoming clogged, touch wood I haven't had any issues. If I see sediment in the water I pour it out and try again.
Adzlin says she cant belief it was warm enough for taps off.
Sun's oot, taps aff. Aye rare to get that in mid September. 😁
