Hi - this video follows on from my Stac Lee posting - it's a landing on Boreray and ascent to the summit by Jon Warren, Andrew Elwell and Steve Holloway, the Warden in May 1990.
I love the start: "where to next then?" "Boreray!"

Loved it Pete. Big thanks from me for uploading it 8)

Looks too steep for me to cope with, I think.
