Cracking weather you had brilliant views superb mate

[@AndyOB]

Thanks Andrew.Been waiting a few weeks for a good weekend weather report.😃👍

[@andy-astro]

Brilliant day you chose for this one Andy, looked a bit breezy in places though, as the day went on. Love the thumbs up pic from the cave. Fantastic views all round of the gnarly landscape.

[@AndyOB]

Thanks Andy.Weather was spot on.Started to get a bit blowey when I popped out the chimney climb😱😱Glad I went back in this way to get to see the Bivi cave and do the scramble up rather than ascending/descending the Great Stone Shoot.If the weather was better I would of stayed to get Am Bastier,but Sunday forecast didn't look good.😀👍

[@PAADVENTURES1]

Cracking video Andy! What amazing conditions you had! Maybe a wee bit breezy but still lovely!, you cant have many left now? Paul

[@AndyOB]

Thanks Paul.Yeah the wind picked up when I reached the chimmney,so it put the heart rate upto the summit and the downlicmb to the top of ghe chute lol.😱 12 to go now.In no rush and will wait for decent weather forecasts.😃👍

[@themunrobagger]

Nice 1 Andy, good job getting that 1 mate, looked a bit hairy on the ridge with the wind 😀 👍. Brilliant 👏

[@AndyOB]

Thanks Tam.Yeah the wind made it a bit squeaky bum trying to get down to the top of the chute.Fantastic day for it.Been waiting a while for a good weekend weather report to go over.😁👍

[@ontheadventuretrails-scotl9389]

Superb. Like that route, one we’ll need to try. 😊

[@AndyOB]

Thanks D and L.😃👍 Just never fancied the slog up the Great Stone Shoot.🤣Tried to do along with Dubh Mhor and Eag a few years ago but strained my leg and dropped back in Ghrunnda.Always wanted to see the Bivi Cave and i'm so glad I went back in this way.😃👍

[@ontheadventuretrails-scotl9389]

@@AndyOB… Hi, we’ll definitely bivvy in the cave. Take our time and enjoy. We once tried to do The Eag.. lol… we failed. Weather wasn’t good so went back. Your video has lit a spark again though. Thanks mate, and all the best. D&L 😁🙏

[@abelmcbride-scotland]

You earned that one mate.😮 Great video and a great achievement. 👍👍😎

[@hikingwithfrank315]

[@AndyOB]

Lol,thanks Frank.3rd attempt for this fecker so glad to have it done.Took a still from ur vid of the chimney so I didnae go up the wrong one.🤣🤣 Did not enjoy the stone chute....still a bit para about my foot so was just glad to get down it.Would not like to go up that way it's that loose. Another trip for Am Basteir now😎👍

[@marietodd4472]

Just watching this again to see what I missed. Didn’t think I’d have the nerve to do this after watching your video the first time but Climbed up the same route on Sunday - was pissing down all so didn’t see a thing ( maybe not a bad thing 😂). Do you mind if I take some screenshots to show what it should’ve been like? Cheers. PS how you getting on with organising g your compleation?

[@AndyOB]

Hi Marie,screenshot away.This was my 3rd attempt at Alasdair.I found the top of the chimney a wee bit squeaky bum as i got hit with a wind at that point.🙄 As for compleation ....maybe missed my chance as the weather was pants with my 2 weeks off work.Not going to finish the rest unless the weather is good and enough daylight.xx

[@MarieTodd]

@@AndyOB thanks xx

[@andrewsadventures5747]

What a day you got Andy! Sounded a tad windy though. Still to this one. How was the stone chute coming down? I assume you don’t want to go up that as it will be pretty tough? Cheer and ATB👍

[@AndyOB]

Thanks Andrew.,great day.The wind made me a wee bit nervy on the summit hence why I dropped down to the top of the chute afore the "Brucie'.😂😂 Did not fancy going up that chute at all and I'm glad I didn't.Still got a bit of fear after my foot injury so even sliding down it was a bit uncomfortable.😱😱 Scramble was good but it can be quite airy going up the chimney and just above it.😃👍

[@itsablack1]

How did you manage to navigate up that avoiding the stone chute ? Have you done this route before ? Its not a route walkhighlands talks about going up.. I'm heading there next week hope I get the weather you got , it looks amazing 👍

[@AndyOB]

I knew there was a scree path directly under the T.D. GAP and a chimney to climb before a scramble to the summit.Most guides would take you this way if you were doing Sgurr nan Eag,Sgurr Dubh Mor and Sgurr Alasdair together.😃👍

[@marietodd4472]

Jeezo that’s scary as 😱

[@AndyOB]

@@marietodd4472 Have u not done Sgurr Alasdair Marie?😀xx

[@billybarbour-oy5jb]

What a day you had Andy a bit hairy on the top but what great views 😁 p.s. what happened to the tunes🤣

[@AndyOB]

Yeah Billy...wind made it a wee bit squeaky bum on top.🤣🤣 Had tunes for it,but when I put them on the vid i wasn't getting the vibe so took them off.Couldn't be bothered searching for anymore.🤣👍
