What an great adventure! The Central Highlands look absolutely stunning, and the remote bothies you visited seem like such peaceful escapes. Loved how the trip was full of unique moments and the connection to nature really came through. That quote from the bothy book, “nature rewards braveness,” is really inspiring - it sums up the spirit of the whole journey!

Hi Dan, I think this is my first watch of one of your adventures and I really enjoyed it and listening to what you have to say too. This type of trip was very similar to my own earlier in the year hiking across the Cairngorms and catching the late bus home. . It also reminded me of the time I spent at loch Ossian YH probably about 20 years ago now. Like you I’m sure I too am really looking forward to another trip to Scotland next year. ATB Dan. 🥃

Thanks Dave. I'm glad you enjoyed it and hope I went some way in doing it justice. I bet the hostel 20 years ago wasn't much different to today. Well..... I am not sure if it had hot water and electricity back then.

Alright there Dab - a full happy view mate. An epic walk in and friendly meeting with the camper. But how good you chose to walk on - ah that valley was awe inspiring and hey, still. Yeah, perfect to commune with the mountains from down below, which I like. A tad wet the next day but nothing to worry about. Sweet walk out. All the best. Mark

I love Islay (I did some cycling there) and Jura. I've hiked over a dozen times in Europe but not much in my native Scotland. I'm glad I discovered your videos. To be honest, it was initially because I was curious about the route the missing hiker (as reported on the BBC website) took: Inverie to Glenfinnan. That's the first video of yours I watched. Your films are well-presented and beautifully shot but above all it's your spirit, your appreciation, your enthusiasm and your gratitude that are most compelling. May God continue to protect you and bless you. I can definitely see He has already...🙏

@@danexitsstreetview3273 "Leenie" is my nickname :) Have you ever thought of doing the Camino de Santiago? The one (called the "Francés") from Saint Jean Pied de Port is the classic (and imho the best for many reasons) but there are so many others, beginning in different places in France, Switzerland, Germany and other countries in Europe. It has its own challenges. I met a young American woman who had done the Appalachian Trail "thru hike" and she said the Camino had challenges she hadn't expected eg. her first blisters and the dry heat especially during the more exposed stages during the "Meseta" part.

"Cheers" in Scottish Gaelic is "Slàinthe Mhath" (sla-nge-va(r)) and means "Good health". Or you can just say "Sláinthe" (slan-the) for short. So it's the same in Irish Gaelic except it's pronounced differently apparently ("sloyn-cheh"). I do hope, however, that nobody's going to think that drinking more than a couple of drops of alcohol while hiking in the remote Highlands with its unpredictable weather is remotely a good idea... You need ALL your wits about you. (And some people, as we know or ought to know, aren't capable of drinking just one miniature and stopping there 😢)

I will stick to the good old Vango Banshee 200. Ive had that for a decade now , quick to put up and just right for one person. I tried other types of tents, but for the price it is such a strong reliable tent. Big plus for me is that you can open it either side. Don't like the enclosed feeling of a tunnel tent. But if it works for you great.
