Hi Murrary, I've been following your videos for a number of years now. Today, we took our 11 and 8 yr old kids up Stac Pollaidh. We'd been up it about 15 years ago when we did a tour of Scotland for our honeymoon, and so knew the view at the top is brilliant. Happy to say, both kids and adults made it to the top. Kids faired better physically than us oldies. 15 years has taken its toll on us city dwellers. Really windy at the top but the views are so good. Keep the videos coming.

Hi Murray, well we made it across the pond and this morning we did a nice walk from Lochinver to Achmelvich beach. Not sure if you have ever done this nice stroll but as you said today sometimes its the views from another mountain that can be just as good as climbing the mountain itself. Anyway when we made it up the hill we had a great view back over to Quinag, Canisp, Suilven, a couple of Culs, and Stac Pollaidh. It was magical! Hope you get back to full strength soon and keep posting, we love your videos and they inspire us to get our boots on....

Thanks Murray, yesterday was the long walk into Suilven, as mature walkers we planned base camp and a picnic just above Loch na Barrach, that was three hours in so we went up a little ways and then turned and headed back to parking lot at Glen Canisp lodge. Sad to see the lodge is now closed but there is a snack bar there that is open. Today was falls of Kirkcaig to make sure our legs were still attached! It was a pleasant surprise to see the other side of Suilven. Another pleasant walk was up the Ben above Loch Glendhu with fabulous views up the loch and over to Kylesku. Look forward to the new video and don't let Lewis steal your thunder! ;) Andrew

Thanks for this lovely video Murray. This is my first visit to your channel and I can see why you’ve got thousands of followers. I am not only enjoying the wonderful scenery but your commentary is excellent too. I am also admiring your video technique and I’m just wondering what microphone you are using. I have bought one or two Bluetooth microphones for my iPhone but they were a bit flimsy or the sound quality was poor, but your audio is very good indeed and it seems well worth to get a clip on mic. Good to hear you are surviving the Covid episode, it’s a bit of a weird sod.

Hi- thanks for asking. Knee has been much better but not back to what it was before the pain. Best thing I did was visiting the physio and I have been working hard at keeping up the exercises they gave me to do. I may do an update video on all the things I have done (just need to find the time). Hope you get a fix . The other thing I was recommended by the physio was KT strapping which they showed me the best way to use and I have been using that on every trip too.

Luckily the twice I hit the rock I landed on my ruck sack. I've never actually been in a spinning washing machine but I imagine that's what it was like. Was pretty shook up and it felt like my major organs had been dispersed around my body but managed to shamble back to Kingshouse with no major injuries.
