Thank you for this. I have always wanted to show my son what I achieved in my youth. 1975 I sailed on the 3 masted schooner, Captain Scott out of fort William. We would sail around Highlands and Islands, be dropped of hike for 3 days and meet up with the schooner again. Are final hike was 2 days to the base of Nevis and took your route. Up and the path down. Going down. We had a couple of royal marine cadets who wanted to be the first watch back to the ship. So we jogged where ever possible all the way back to the lock and the ship. I was just 16. Dad said I came back a man. I just know now I struggle to get out of a car without help. But my memories are with me. [it was June 1975. The hot summer in living memory so a lot less snow back then and not as many walking up the path. And no one except our other watches and ourselves. I will be showing my son my achievement with your video.

The only time I've seen Ben Nevis was in the distance, from Cairn Gorm, on a windy and rainy day in late September. The scenery in this video is truly beautiful, even with the fog. As for your rant, yes, you're right to voice those experiences.

Brings back such memories of twenty five thirty years ago when the Ben and its ridges were such happy places for me. Castle Ridge, Tower Ridge, Observatory Ridge, North East Buttress, CMD Arrete.

I climbed this route in December 2018. Knee deep in snow. Pretty awful conditions. Half way up the side opposite NF I took pictures of fresh cat prints. Sent the pictures to keel university who confirmed it as the hind leg prints of a fully grown male leopard. Fresh as well. So I came close. Great route.

Outstanding Murray lad. The future missus and I did this in summer, in the mid 80’s, started at 11am and finished at the chip van on the loch side in Fort William at 10.30pm. Cracking day ... clear skies all day, the late start due to low cloud at sea level, and an Olympian level of persuasion on my part ... “it’s going to clear”, and boy, it did. It was an epic outing. Still together now, so it must not have put her off!

Please keep doing youtube Murray your videos have provided me with so much inspiration. I won the walkhighlands report of the month for January 2023 for my report on CMD, your video was a big inspiration for wanting to do it for sunrise. I can imagine youtube being a frustrating platform that seems heavily weighted on algorithms, video titles and the thumbnail. If you visit the lake District that is far worse for parking charges. I must admit full carparks and hundreds of people I find off-putting and prefer to seek solitude which im sure you relate with. Cheers Murray

Proper enjoyed that, the jibering and wittering was just how you felt on the day, so no criticism as it wasn’t fake or put on for the video….. genuine. As for the car park that’s the kind of thing I would do ( contact the FC ) just to do it by the book and then turn up to find the rules flouted. You did it the right way, at least you didn’t go to sleep that night wondering if you was going to get a knock on the door to move on. Fingers crossed back up that part of the country with my son in fedruary, March. Enjoyed your online video diary 👍🏻

Ah some stunning views looked a great day and alas last time i did this few months back, albeit in reverse after a north ascent with my climbing partner we literally had rope lenght of vis and was glad to get off the arete due to the deteriorating conditions. Really enjoyed this one and the drone views, thank you - defo an Alpine start time! I will just add for anyone stumbling across this as a recce to going up the Ben and given how many untrained/naive to potential conditions and MRT enducing people go up the Ben then do not use this route, google the pony track! Also the safe escape route off the summit if the clag comes down is 231 bearing for 150m (Critical to avoid death falling into Gardyloo gully), if the ground starts to get increasingly steeper on your 231 bearing STOP you have gone too far and dangerous fall awaits. Given a correct 150 m pacing from the summit then take a 282 bearing until picking up the pony track. Do not divert to the left when the ground steepens on your 282 bearing as a potential fall down five finger gully is also a very real risk. Practice pacing so you know what 150m is of your stride is in control conditions before you go up the Ben. Please educate on how to use a Map and Compass and know how to use them (GPS screens can easily smash if you have a fall, or equally fail). As for most Alpine feeling traverse route in Winter for Scotland, that is a very thought provoking question and personal as you say. For me in full winter conditions i'd say its Liathach by some distance (well apart from the stunning sea views out to the Minch if the vis permits). Thankfully its a lot further drive for most so it's much quieter too. Great channel, narration and content. Safe travels out there.

Great video Murray - brought back memories of the only time I climbed the mountain, by the same route but in the early summer about 30 years ago - still snowy on top though. I'd spent the night before at a B&B near Fort William where the lady of the house, learning of my plan, produced a 1kg box of frozen herrings in oatmeal and plunged the lot into the deep fat fryer for my breakfast. I swear to you Murray they were still repeating on me at the summit. Annoying about the parking, these frustrations are only set to worsen as more people take to the hills requiring overnight parking, and regulations continue to proliferate in our Nanny State. We will need to develop private strategies!

Loved that one Murray - is it just me or have we been missing out on the auld 'Superbos' recently?? Synonymous with scotch eggs I am told! We have a similar situation in Langdale with parking, they are removing the coin machines (too costly) and replacing with Ringo - the only problem is there is no signal on any network at the Old Dungeon Ghyll car park so you can't pay!!! Last time I was there I moaned to the NT ranger about it and he said you had to drive further down until you get signal, pay for parking, and then come back and hope the space is still there - you can't make this stuff up!! There is a signal at the New Dungeon Ghyll car park and this is deemed OK for both it would seem

Another great video. I'm so glad you still think KZbin is worth it. Your films are a highlight of our household's week. I really must do the arete sometime but I don't have skills for winter. It looks great. I loved all the rambling, it sounds like my inner monologue when I'm on the bike.

Mint conditions, Murray, and we know when you’re in flow when you start talking gibberish 😅 Your work is absolutely worth it - incredible photography and editing and all presented without pretence. You make me long to return to Scotland’s Mountains.

Well done Murray on the climb. The video was great. The sunrise was spectacular. I’m not surprised your feet were sore at the end. Well done.

Brilliant video and also CMD with the Arete means you can achieve 2 of the 4000's in one go. This was the first time my Mrs did it, and no crowds, love the route

Great video and never give up, never managed to get to that side unfortunately. Took 9 hours to do the pony track after a serious Spinal op and I'm really proud of it. Best view of the Ben I've managed was sitting on Stob Ban in glorious sunshine watching a continuous line of people still heading for the top. Great stuff as always 👏 thanks for your efforts.

I did the WHW last April with a mate & planned to go up Ben Nevis when we finished but unfortunately due to to time & a bit of weather we never made it. I really enjoyed the trip & got a glimpse of the spectacular scenery. Your videos are fantastic & have inspire me to return to Scotland in September this time to do the 1st half of the skye trail from Rubha Hunish to Portree. Please keep making these fantastic videos for us to enjoy. TKU VM .Simon👍

Hi Murray, You are right there are lots of other channels out there but yours are the best. They are always informative, interesting and 100% on safety. Another absolutely brilliant video. Fantastic scenery and image's. All the best mate. Take care and stay safe.
More than one way to go, but which way was best?
