Kev that was superb and to get rewarded with them views after the clag lifted was just brilliant, that camp spot looking over the Torridon giants was to die for and a cracking sunset well done mate. Atb Ally 👍👍

Haha cheers Bry. Cannae beat the pink glasses 😂 Like the name change. 👍

[@Pommyjon1978]

These are cracking hills, some of my first Munro's and Corbetts. I remember venturing up on a Friday evening camping at the Wee Campsite and do these the following morning. Great condition on the first day, thanks for bringing back some memories. Cheers Jon

[@Kev_Russ]

Cheers Jon. They are fine Hills indeed. 😎

[@KhurshidsChannel]

Wow!! Fantastic shots. Nice video. Thanks for sharing. Like 👍15

[@andy-astro]

Nice adventure Kev. Glad you popped through the cloud on day one. Fuar Tholl is a beautiful wee hill. Nice spot you found on Sgorr Ruadh to see the crags too.

[@Kev_Russ]

Cheers Andy. It's a cracker eh. The best of the 3 😎

[@scottishclimber7630]

That looks a great Corbett Kev. A fantastic trip combining it with the Munros. When we did the 2 Munros never saw a thing in the clouds all day. Definitely need to revisit sometime on a good day. Looked an excellent spot for your camp. ATB Derek

[@Kev_Russ]

Cheers Derek. It was a great weekend.

[@rossmcewan3952]

Brilliant as ever Kev . Must be my favourite Munro/ Corbett combo. It’s stunning . Done it twice as I wasn’t sure I’d touched the cairn on one of the Munros . Keep them coming mate 😊

[@Kev_Russ]

Cheers bud. Cracking hills eh. Aye bet that would've nagged away at ya before ye did them again. 😉

[@RossMcEwan-sk8rf]

😅

[@donnavansenior]

Some views those like Kev! Wow!!! Who would have thought it with that claggy start to the day. At one point it looked like Islands floating in the sky. Brilliant - and that tent is still serving you very well I see :)

[@Kev_Russ]

Cheers Donna. It was a cracking Saturday. Aye tent going well. Maybe might replace it with another pyramid tent. Maybe the Asta from Ali express 🤔

[@donnavansenior]

@@Kev_Russ That Asta looks quite canny, watched a lad out in one a few nights ago on YT - he had the dark one with a half solid / half mesh inner by the looks of it.

[@DAoutdoors]

Ey up Kevlar. Brilliant stuff mate, stunning views on that first evening, shame they didn’t stay for the second day but that’s the mountains for you. That descent looked brutal mate over the boulder field. That’s a proper case of careful as you go! You and Robin should get paid by Aldi, you don’t half do some advertising for them. You need to be on at least what Kevin the carrot gets! 🤣🤣

[@Kev_Russ]

Cheers Dave. Haha aye. Cannae forget Lidls too 😂

[@BoredManOutdoors]

Lovely couple of days up high but the first night looked pretty special Kev... Really nice to get your just rewards... Boootiful... Have you considered getting the wife's sunnies insured - just a thought? 🤔😂😂😂

[@Kev_Russ]

Haha I should eh 😂

[@NBNatureTrailvan]

No better day for the pink shades Kev. Current scenes were just jaw dropping. So glad that you got above the clag early. Atmospheric Sunset but a misty start 2nd day even though it looked like it was going to burn through. Which songs were Robin singing? 😃😃. The talent scouts will be all over this!! Rough climb down! Another great vid Kev - have a good week mate 👍👍

[@Kev_Russ]

Haha cheers. Think he was singing crocodile shoes. Jimmy Nail 😂

[@NBNatureTrailvan]

@@Kev_Russ 😃😃

[@andrewsadventures5747]

Superb Kevin. Done a few up that area and not always got the best weather. Had to abandon these 2 as weather was crap. I will need to return one day but I’ll wait for a good weather window. 👍

[@Kev_Russ]

Cheers Andy., Aye best daien them in good weather

[@JenniferLupine]

Great trip Kev and Robin! I hope Robin gets discovered too! Really enjoyed the views along the way, especially the sunshine above the inversion. Really steep and challenging climbing… that one section of rocks were all broken in squares and rectangles- really interesting, but rough hiking. I can imagine sore and tired knees and legs! Loved the views! 💚💚👌😄

[@Kev_Russ]

Thanks Jen. Yeah it was a great couple of days but very sore after

[@nickname6747]

Cracking couple of days out on some much underrated hills, shame about the clag - seems to be a feature of 2024 (could be worse). Thanks for uploading, Kev.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏔👍

[@Kev_Russ]

Thanks Nick. 👍

Clag is gash eh Paul. Haha feature length. Wis a long one for me eh 😉 ooft 35 in a bothy. Jeez. 🤨 Aye always happens eh. Clears oan the way doon. Robin and his nuts eh. 😂

[@ootnboots]

Good stuff Kevin , day 1 was stunning when the clouds burnt off. Day 2 "Gash" lol ...Good video buddy ...cheers Stevie

[@Kev_Russ]

Cheers Steve. 👍

[@BrokenBackMountains]

Hah! Recognised the tent in the thumbnail before I saw who it was 👍

[@Kev_Russ]

Haha nice tent eh 😉

[@ScotlandsMountains]

Brilliant first day Kevin- when you popped out of the cloud 👌👌👌👌

[@Kev_Russ]

Cheers Murray. Cannae beat it eh. 😎

[@paulharvey9149]

Personally, I find you can always complain, Kev! It disnae always help like, but let's face it, the Scottish definition of clag is pure keech, in' it? Especially when it's yer first feature-length video, eh?!! Aye - you've done us a' well, we'll be looking forward to the next one, now! Actually, that usually happens to me in Wales, come to think of it: tramp up Snowdon - well, me and my pal got the train actually - fantastic views o' the ridges - until the last 200 feet! Thick fog at the top station - it was hardly even worth climbing up the steps to the top... Cadair Idris was the same - start at Kings Youth Hostel, fairly easy walk up the side - then as soon as you set foot on the summit plateau - clag. It made the wee bothy on the top a pretty sociable place mind - when there's 35 o' ye's in there - that does tend to happen! Honest, it wis like Noah's Ark: there were rangers leadin' everybody oot in their twos and threes through this total pea-souper, to the top of their chosen paths as, once you'd dropped 25 feet, it was clear again!! Oh - and I see ye've been practicing yer Gaelic: Torridonian - that's quite a big word... And who needs wrap o'clock when you've got Robin's nuts, eh...?!!
