074 Sgùrr nan Gillean, Isle of Skye, Scotland. Clear skies, more stunning views of the Cuillin ridge

Wow, views up there are absolutely stunning. I wouldn’t do any Cuillin without a guide so well done for doing it.

Brilliant as always 1 of the best and most informative channels on KZbin thanks for taking the time and effort to make these videos very helpful for others who have not done these mountains before thank you David

Thanks, gives me a good excuse to repeat some of the Munroes. Not that you need an excuse to climb Gillean on a clear day!

This is great, most detailed route description I've seen. I was on the mountain in ,1987, so distant memories. I think at the point you backtracked a bit, thigh on the ridge, we may have continued. The ascent seemed quick and wasn't too daunted crossing the hiatus, on the summit ridge. The bit that has stuck in my mind, was the descent, very challenging down scrambling facing the rock, my friend almost became cragfast, managed to talk him down, putting his boot in a foothold. Wow, what a mountain, deservedly among the harder of Munro's

[@hikescotland2360]

Yes, I went too far up the left hand side, still don't think I did it 'properly' but it wasn't too difficult.

Fine video, thanks. Brings back memories of my first ascent more than 40yrs ago. I was probably lucky that I found the easiest route onto the ridge, then slightly left up a gulley and then stick to crest or slightly left. It was the hardest scramble I had ever done, but really good. At the summit I met some lads from? a Nottingham climbing club. They persuaded me to descend the west ridge over the now fallen off gendarme and down the airy descent into the Corrie. A lot harder than the tourist route! No ropes. After that I learned to rock climb, which led to some great times. Too old now, so I say do it while you can. Don’t wait.

Ps, did Pinnacle ridge a few years later…it’s good.

@@robertpeters5278 I might do the ridge if I loose some weight! 😁
