I just bought one for my upcoming Antarctica trip to give me better access to my camera/s, and essential items (sunscreen). Some travelers have mentioned it is better to be hands free and some travelers who visited the white continent before have found out that it is better to do the expedition with as little belongings as possible and backpacks are not usually needed.

Those ruins are beautiful. You said it best. Mind-Blowing and causing curiosity as to how they lived!

10:53 Do you want the ring?! Because well+camera is how you get the ring.

Beautiful

Bro beat RDR2 and was NOT ready to end the map exploration 😂

This video was not only super interesting and beautifully shot, it also ended wholesome imho since you put up a safety measure on your own!

Excellent vid,enjoyed it alot...a bit of trivia, my dad actually hang glided of Muckish in 1976😊

Not a religious nutter from sub Saharan Africa in sight...

Please tell me you’re returning to those stone structures with a metal detector.

I'm a little confused, could someone clarify for me? If they were test holes done for a reservoir near the end of the 1800s, why do they show up on the earlier maps (1832-ish) but not the later maps? Were they wells serving the houses originally?

9:19 - What is that, Precious? In your previous video, you lamented one of those empty and I didn’t pay it much mind, but now that you’ve come across a stocked one, it’s piqued my curiosity.

Geee wats the west side like?

the Worst Highland Way..........its DRIMAN

the railway to KILLIN built before Custer was famous

Rowadenan to Inversnaid= hell

I really thought they would be limestone mines being next to the kilns

Are they higher elevation than the settlements? Could be cisterns.

Sounds like barry or garry was doing damage control.

Love these behind the scenes "Woops" moments. Just makes things more relatable. I'd of had worse knowing my luck

Yknow when you thought you looked daft.....yeah you were right mate

Hmm what if it was a hole created by what used to be there? If there is a second one straight across from it, at a distance, maybe it was an archway for the giants and it was removed, leaving a holes.

That definitely looked like a top 10 places to backpack (wild camp). Absolutely stunning!

It's that wee quick look round we do immediately afterwards to see if anyone is watching us.

Really sad seeing the trail a mess like that. Wasn't like that the two time I walked it thankfully. That honesty box has to be the best one on the whole way! Didn't notice the no paramedic sign before, wonder if it is new ..

You need a dropper post , so you can cock your leg over lol

My “every 10 years or so” relationship with bikes makes that look very reasonable 😅

On a walk that is overly documented this was really entertaining. Gutted you missed that first food stop, its a fab place. No idea how you missed the honestly box though lol. It is directly after the bridge, maybe lets just blame the rain for hiding it.

Truly great video, thank you. I really enjoyed this story. You did such a great job of researching, and then providing all the details. Best History class ever!! 😁 ✌🏼❤️

Great video, really helpful and practical comparison between the pros and cons of different filter types. Based on this review I bought the Pure Clear filter (500ml squeezable bottle) and when it arrived the instructions clearly state 'We recommend you change the filter every 2 months' - and again 'The filter cartridge has a lifespan of 200 litres or 2 months'. Nowhere on the website does it specify the '2 months' lifespan, which feels like deceptive marketing, because for most casual backpackers who go walking once or twice a month, a 200 litre lifespan is likely to last anywhere from 6 months to a year, whereas changing the filter every 2 months makes it a much more expensive proposition. In your video you state that the filter only has a lifespan of 2 months if it's left wet, but that lifespan increases if it's dried - and the website also states 'The life of the filter can be extended by drying out the filter and storing it after use' - but neither your review, nor the website give any indication of how much the lifespan is increased by storing it dry - which kinda matters. Is it by an extra month, 2 months, 6 months? Also the packaging which comes with the product makes no reference to the lifespan being increased beyond 2 months. The bottom line is - if I really have to change this every 2 months, then that takes the yearly cost to £90 just for filters (assuming I buy them in bulk, otherwise I'm also paying shipping) - which is nowhere near as cheap as is suggested in this review or on the website. And, if the lifespan can be increased by drying - by how much? Anyway, not a direct criticism of your review, more a note of caution for anyone else looking to buy this specific filter (I've emailed the company so will update here if I get a response) UPDATE - very helpful clarification from the manufacturer (and quick response!): 'To be crystal clear - the filter performs for around 220 litres, but for safety reasons we state 200 litres. The “change every 2 months” is based on usage of every day. You see some people find it hard to calculate how much they have used the filter when they use it every day. Our filters are in many different products, and some products are used every day (not sure a collapsible squeeze would be) but we offer this information as guidance. If someone is happy to calculate the exact usage, then its 200 litres. That 200 litres can be used in many ways such as 5 litres, then stored away for 1 year, then used the remainder of the 195litres, or just 10 litres in June, then stored, then used 20 litres in August etc etc, there is no limit on how you used your 200 litres. We would just recommend that the filter is stored correctly, which would be to dry out, placed in an airtight bag and stored in a dry place out of sunlight. Alternatively you can store it in the freezer.'

Those of us who live near the dreadful NC500 route have the same problems what is even worse some do this in full view of residents. We have Motor homes/ Camper vans who throw out rubbish, empty waste tanks & think they can park up anyware often on private property & block our entrances. We want to welcome visitors & there are many who come who are very respectful but these others we do not want who spoil it for the rest. Many rural homes have private water from mountain springs so we simply do not want our water poluted by the dirty inconsiderate tourists.

Hi Stephen, stumbled upon your vids, been enjoying the West Highland Way 😂, looking forward to part 3, glad you’re enjoying the Scottish weather and our beautiful countryside.

The video quality is great , what camera are you using

Great job

If I am being honest, I am not into the holistic, for lack of a better term, aspect of barefoot but my feet feel better in flats. My lateral arch started killing me out of nowhere and I bought some barefoot sandals, and that pain wasn't there. But I have been having a hard time finding a boot I like. I have Xero, Lems and Jim Green. The Xeros as closer to what I want but not quite there. The Lems are padded with some negative drop in the heel and contouring in the medial arch. The Jim Greens are flat, but the stack height is up there, the midsole molds to your foot and the sole is squishy (and they have awful traction on tile/commercial flooring). Anyway, the Vivos are on my radar for sure. I am in and out of nature on the daily. Maybe in the shop, out in the forest, on a trail, fishing, hiking, back to the shop etc. How well do you think these would do on wet tile floors? I've busted my rear in other boots a few times, lol. Thank you for the video on these, both of them.

Thank you for the laughs!

Rather take a look at this guy, with proper scientific backing www.youtube.com/@GearSkeptic

Did you wave to the supposed security camera?

The gps won't match because of tectonic plate movement.

I switched to barefoot shoes after i sprained my ankle and then rolled the same foot 5 days later. Almost 2 years later, my feet are strongest in my my lifetime. Planners in both feet are gone, and Achilles tendinitis in both feet gone.

It's the people who are disgusting.

What a stupid title. The West Highland way is stunning. You pick out one section that when you went was not a nice experience. But to say the whole way is disgusting is just click bait nonsense. And it’s not the way or any small part that is disgusting. It’s the behaviour of a tiny minority of people that is disgusting.

7:57 well thats an insta sub from me 😭😆❤

I not tell aswell I been there a few times 😂😂😂

@stephen - I'm so curious, when did you walk? I completed it last Wednesday and saw none of the rubbish you did along Loch Lomond. Were you there just after the bank holiday weekend? I did Drymen to Ardlui Friday 24th/Saturday 25th.

sir u are obv quite quite mad.. i shall be waching more :)

Good job putting up a caution line.

And your headline makes out that the whole of the whw is disgusting bollocks to your negative video

Stag out scotland then ya negative clown

Just subbed after seeing yr WHW vids in my newsfeed...loving them....when is ultramathon getting posted?? 😁x

Too many Rangers Supporters and Unionists just leaving their rubbish lying around basically because they can't stand Scotland and being Scottish so have absolutely no prid3.
