[@baldymagoo]

Corned beef and onion sarnies are my hill favourite and generally followed with wee Melton Mowbray pork pies cut in half with brown sauce in the middle then wrapped in foil.

[@kennyhumphries100]

Love Jerry’s knowledge of the hills n that could listen to him all day… class hearing the hill names from different perspectives.. cheerz lads.

[@vanessamoyes6243]

I can honestly recommend trying to get up there.. I've been 4 times so far, it's a long journey from one end of the country up to the other but ohhhh so well worth it,I loved every second.. even spending 10 days camping when it rained every day lol.. the views are totally awesome.. Glencoe is magnificent.. the history and the majesty of those mountains will stay in my heart forever .

[@garyboyle695]

@@vanessamoyes6243 Glencoe is a magical place, even without its history. Just the way the mountain rear up from the road.

It's alright but the midges are a proper main the arse. If they are not about you will need to dodge the rain. If it's not raining don't count on blue sky's. Sometimes better off staying at home with a bottle of bucky!

What a magnificent panoramic view! Thank you very much for sharing and for naming all the hills and points of interest!

[@bobwightman1054]

Had a day like that when we went over to Loch A'an in the Cairngorms. Total pea-souper heading up to the Coire Cas car park. Within a few hundred metres we were above the inversion and had crystal clear skies all day. Did Route Major on Carn Etchachan then wandered back over the plateau. The following day was more typical - walking on a bearing through a whiteout over to Hell's Lum

Absolutely brilliant again gentlemen. I don’t know if Gerry missed them out on purpose but I’m sure that way in the distance I could make out the great peaks of Stob Coire a Pork Pie and Sgur na Scotch Egg, with Ben Mac Irn Bru Jelly Baby a little further north!

[@janetturner7489]

Tremendous trio with scrumptious Scotch eggs! Liked the geography lesson at the summit. Cheers Murray.

[@ianpark1805]

Smashing video! I’ve climbed several of the peaks in the panorama - always wondered how to pronounce Stob a Choire Odhair, I thought it might be a bit like ‘oar’ - but so far not Beinn Dorain. Driven and walked past it but never up it. Perhaps the view coming out of Tyndrum is a bit too intimidating. I’ve watched several Appalachian Trail videos and thought I knew what a ‘flip-flop-er’ was, but now I realise it’s someone who covers all bases by carrying both scotch eggs and a pork pie! Incidentally Tesco’s owe you, sponsorship, unlimited scotch eggs etc.,…….😂

[@amandamorton2788]

That was a gorgeous video, another one on the bucket list. Thanks Murry.

[@dalriadaskillen]

Gosh! You can see for miles from the luxuriant mountain Beinn Dobhrain on a clear day. Great weather (if freezing) for your hike. Thanks for taking us with you as always. 😁

During the winter of 87-88 (my first winter in the hills) me and some pals glissaded (bum slid) off the wee bealach almost to the track of the WHW. Maybe the only time I've been back in the pub for lunch! Never to be repeated now I'm cusping 60, and live in Tasmania!!

Belter Murray, what a day! Gerry’s knowledge of the peaks is encyclopedic!! Pork pies and Scotch eggs are both a worthy mountain snack, but you gotta get a steak pie in there for full satisfaction 😀

It’s been my favourite Munro it’s stunning and a great character of a hill.

[@declanflaherty8958]

Fantastic! I am from the Gaeltacht in south west Ireland -Dingle and Jerry brought me back a few moons when he registered the hills. A wee memory of myself and my grandad sitting in Paroiste Mór and he was doing exactly what Jerry was doing, passing on the knowledge of the mountains. It’s amazing these days that so few of us actually know any of their majestic names. Thanks to you all. Lovely video!

[@davidcalder8210]

1 of the 1st mountains that took my breath away and a day I’ll never forget 😮 i was on my way to Glencoe but was a day or 2 away making the most of my weekend i took the train to Corrour to visit the trainspotting location (bridge) i was in awe of the mountains on that journey up and when i seen Ben Dorain i said to myself and my friend who i was meeting at Glencoe to do The Buachaille for the 1st time that i had to go back to summit this mountain and did eventually just before the winter set in a mountain that i always call out to myself when passing by with a smile Ben Dorain i shout 😊 it’s a cracker and yous got a great day for it i still get ever so excited making that journey up from Fife Lochearnhead - Crianlarich - Tyndrum - Bridge of Orchy - Glencoe it is a very special road again respect for letting Gerry do the 180 I’m pretty sure that you know all these mountains as well as him but it’s a great part of your vlogs to look forward to step forward Gerry it’s all yours fantastic knowledge 👏 well done guys a great short winters day up on the mountains 🏔️ and although small B O O is a very special little place too 🤩 thanks for sharing David

[@richardparker6606]

Absolutely stunning day for a seize the day adventure. Driven past there for year and always wanted to walk it, think it’s time to do. It was great to have the opportunity to have the 180 degree footage and to have a detailed description of the mountains too. Big thanks Murry 👍👍

[@kieriano1]

This mountain got me in to hillwalking. Any time I would drive up towards Glencoe and turn round the corner on the road to reveal Beinn Borain i was mesmerised by just how utterly cool it looked dominating the landscape. Finally got to climb it a couple years ago and was one of the best days on the hills!

Absolutely love your productions Murray. Incredible views from up there and I’ll need to get up there to see it for myself. As I mentioned a while back, I am a tour guide for a wee Scottish company that sounds similar to Tabbie’s and I always send people your way to get higher views of the roads I take them along. The humour and dry wit yourself and Gerry always display makes me laugh too, I love it. If a guy in a wee white mini coach beeps the horn it will probably be me 👍🏼😎

Murray, would you mind personally if I ask you a finance question about your van , I watched the video about your own purchase and you saved for 10 years , volkswagon T6 .. I'm thinking of aiming in that direction and was wondering if the price was the same as I'm seeing today at around £60,000 newish .. with your type fittings and fixtures... for My budget would be around the £25,000 but the availability is likely too be way below the standards of your van .. ? From around 2010 models with outdated fixtures.. could you possibly give me the place that converted yours and a rough final price you paid and when roughly that was .. if you don't mind .. Glasgow boy here merely living in Hope .. thanks 👍
