[@camperp195]

Monty the other day,and now gaz is back! Nice to see you back gaz!

[@GazTheExplorer]

Cheers Dingo👍 Hopefully with the new camera I will be sharing videos more often again. ATB

[@kevinchisholm1701]

It's a fantastic path up Ben Vrackie for sure but all those steps are a bit of a thigh burner! Great hill with some fantastic views once you are up though. Thanks for sharing, great to see you back out 😊

[@GazTheExplorer]

Thanks Kevin👍 Agree with your comments on Ben Vrackie. Possibly the best path on any hill I’ve done in Scotland so far. I’ll be back here again for sure. ATB Gaz

[@grahamscothern4319]

Nice to see you back out Gaz Atb Graham

[@GazTheExplorer]

Cheers Graham and it’s nice to be back. ATB

[@1elaire]

Great video, cool camp spot and fab footage. 😀

[@GazTheExplorer]

Thanks for watching Raymond. A nice wee camp spot and easy access from the car. ATB

[@Kev_Russ]

Nice wee hill to pitch on Gaz. A miserable ish morning. Still looked nobad. Guid wee inversion. 👍

[@jimmyboyd817]

The O.G Mr Kev sue per bosche is in da house 🏠

[@GazTheExplorer]

Thanks Kev, It was a nice trip away after a long week at work. The inversion was a nice surprise after a terrible forecast. Was jealous of the weather you and Robin got further west that weekend. ATB

[@lrac111]

Excellent channel, just subscribed and going to watch your videos, brilliant work and really enjoyable

[@GazTheExplorer]

Thanks for subscribing👍 This video was more of an update video so hopefully you’ll enjoy my normal camping trips with Monty. ATB

[@AirdrieRambler]

Nice one Gaz. Much as the morning seemed a bit grim, on camera it looked really good. I'd be over the moon for an inversion like that. :)

[@GazTheExplorer]

An inversion with a sunrise is absolutely perfect but I should be happy with this inversion. Was nice looking over the Beinn a’Ghlo three with the inversion I got though. Enjoy Beluga Lagoon tonight😃 Gutted I could not make this one due to a work night😥 Got Dunoon and Aberdeen to look forward to instead.

[@AirdrieRambler]

@GazTheExplorer Will do. Going to check those dates out now 😎👍🏻

[@GazTheExplorer]

Hello everyone! I have finally sorted the issues I’ve had at the end of last year and the start of this year and I have managed over the last two weeks to get out and do videos. I have had issues with my GoPro and I’ve lost a few videos because of it. Thankfully I’ve been recognised by a few of you this year when out and about and after a bit of encouragement I’m going to have another go at KZbin. DJI Osmo Action has been brilliant so far and the videos I’ve produced over the weekend have been excellent. Last thing I want to say is I will be using Instagram more often now to update you on my trips. This will include photos and videos as well as using the story section too. Feel free to follow my Instagram and there will be a link in the description to it. If you already follow me on Instagram you will know I recently had a brilliant weekend camping on the Munros❄️👍

[@dougieranger]

Good luck with the Osmo, I’ve heard good things about them.

[@GazTheExplorer]

@@dougieranger I’ve heard good things about them too. So far it’s been so much more enjoyable filming with a much more reliable camera.

[@dougieranger]

@@GazTheExplorerYeah, the GoPro’s seem to have a very high failure rate. Glad to see you back on the trail mate. 🍺

[@mrnobody3276]

Your new camera makes everything look so much clearer and true to life Gaz. Hope to see you upload more often again going forward.

[@GazTheExplorer]

Thanks Darren, GoPro has good quality to be fair but it’s far too faulty. Enjoying using this new camera from DJI. Look forward to filming more trips with it. ATB Gaz

[@fraserconnell21]

Great stuff Gaz🫡. More of the same buddy 👏👍🏼. The dji camera has things that ootpunch the gopro. 🙏

[@GazTheExplorer]

Thanks Fraser. Just adjusting the audio settings every camp the now. Apart from that I’m fairly happy with the camera. Much more reliable than the GoPro. Should hopefully help produce more enjoyable videos now. ATB

[@wulliescottishoutdoors]

Hi Gaz how’s things mate, another great wee video mate, keep up the good work. Atb Wullie ✊🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@GazTheExplorer]

Thanks a lot Wullie👍 Doing a lot better now. Me and Monty are just trying to focus on getting out camping more now. ATB

[@jameshiggins.openworld]

the legendary Gaz back with another video . I wish someone would do a Virtual Reality camping video lots of good virtual reality cameras out there just an idea ?

[@jameshiggins.openworld]

James

[@GazTheExplorer]

@@jameshiggins.openworld Cheers James👍 Nice wee suggestion. ATB

[@jameshiggins.openworld]

@@GazTheExplorer would be amazing

[@dougieranger]

Good to see you back again Gaz. 👍🏼

[@GazTheExplorer]

Thanks Dougie, more to come hopefully. ATB Gaz

[@wallace-bv4rl]

Good to see you and I’m off to B Lagoon at the end of the month in Glasgow. If I see you there I’ll say hello 👍 unless you say “naw” here 😂👍

[@GazTheExplorer]

You’ll enjoy Beluga Lagoon. Unfortunately I never went for tickets for the Barrowlands because the day of the Gig put me off going. I’m hoping Andrew will announce more gigs this winter. He is a great singer👍 ATB

[@wallace-bv4rl]

@@GazTheExplorerThe tv programmes made by Andrew (is it) helped get me and the Mrs through lock down. Too many excuses why it didn’t inspire me to go outdoors more but I do like a YT camp now and again! Sounds like you’ve lost your camping mojo for the time being. You did the right thing taking a break! Hope you get the love of it back or find a new path!! 👍

[@cristo2292]

Gaz. Welcome back and good to see you. Been following for a bit now, just happened upon videos of you as I was researching the MSR Elixir 1 tent and wanting to get into backpacking as a beginner. Keep doing what you do, keep safe and hydrated and I do hope to visit Scotland one of these days.

[@GazTheExplorer]

Thanks Cristo and good luck with your adventures👍 ATB Gaz

[@AndyMacaskill]

Good to see you back out, Gaz. Did your car have a ticket in the morning?

[@GazTheExplorer]

Thanks Andy and no my car survived the night with nothing on it. Campers were there in the morning before I left so all good. ATB

[@advandersteld3754]

Please carry on with your videos! What a pleasure to see you again....

[@GazTheExplorer]

Thanks Advandersteld. Comments like this do help. Should be more content coming now👍 ATB.

[@Craigsoutdooradventures]

Good to see you back out Gaz, hope you are keeping well?

[@GazTheExplorer]

Thanks Craig, at the moment this is the best I have felt all year. Slow start to the year but all good now. Sorry about your friend🙏 Hope you’re doing well and still getting out there. ATB Gaz

[@Craigsoutdooradventures]

@@GazTheExplorer thanks Gaz, been a tough old time, not ready to get back out yet but hopefully won’t be much longer 👊

[@beaubrent]

For some time I thought to go to pastry school, but I'm glad I didn't. If you do something when you like - when it suits your life and suits your mood - you're likely to enjoy it a lot more. I reckon the same is true with camping videos. You've got to do it when you like or you won't like it. So while I'm glad you're back for a video, I'm glad you have the wisdom to step away a bit also.

[@GazTheExplorer]

Very true words there. I needed away from KZbin after the issues with the GoPro. Probably lost a lot of viewers over the last few months but enjoying filming the videos was always the most important part which I wasn’t at the start of the year. ATB

[@1N0ly]

Hello from the States! Glad to see you are back!

[@GazTheExplorer]

And Hello from Scotland🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 More videos to come now. ATB Gaz

[@jasongriffiths9505]

Good to see you back again Gaz , and great views as always 👍

[@GazTheExplorer]

Thanks Jason, two more videos to come over the next two weeks and I have 4 camps planned for next week. Will see what happens. Thanks for coming back to the channel. ATB

[@craigy1872]

Great to have you back 👍🏻

[@GazTheExplorer]

Thanks for watching Craig. After being away for so long it’s great to see people are still interested in the videos. ATB gaz

[@MrSparkies]

Nice to see you back

[@GazTheExplorer]

Cheers Martyn👍 Thanks for watching ATB Gaz

[@lukedawes9816]

Missed you Gaz, hope you are ok 👍

[@GazTheExplorer]

Thanks Luke, hoping the new camera will be the turning point for the channel. Lost a few videos because of the GoPro. ATB

[@tkaald]

Noticed you have the tiny pump. Did you get yours refunded? There was an eu recall on that pump a year ago. I was refunded so got it for free. Reason for recall was the charge cable. It contained bad substances dangerous to wild life and environment.

[@GazTheExplorer]

Never knew about this👍

[@richardfromcornwall5492]

What brand are those down boots please?

[@GazTheExplorer]

Cuticate
