Great video. Looked hard work walking up through the bogs!

Loved the part with your dog playing in the snow.

'Croin' is deinfitely a world to beware of! Having done its brother Beinn a' Chroin a few days earlier - also 'hard' being the keyword - now I know not to underestimate this one. Very nicely put together video, and congrats to your dog who has clealry mastered the art of bog-walking as well as snow.
