Re: Bothy-hopping all the way

Excellent video Rich!!

Re: Bothy-hopping all the way

What a truly excellent little film. It quite made my day and induced definite feelings of itchy feet. I have to say that I admire his enthusiasm and his grit in filming during the most trying conditions. On such days, my camera stays in the pack and all I think about is finishing the day and getting back into the tent! Thanks so much Rich for drawing our attention to such a delight.

Pete, I think that you're exaggerating that day on Broad Cairn, which had quietly falling snow with no wind at all, one of the most unusual days I've had on the Challenge. Despite the snow, the mist and (later) the rain, it never felt even remotely threatening and there were quite a few Challengers in evidence, some nursing sore heads following the celebrations at Callater. I've certainly had worse conditions.
