Crib Goch - Snowdon, North Wales
A bit of topless, hands-off, scrambling action for the first section of Snowdon's notorious grade one ridge - fair play, you can hear the wind blustering away on the microphone and there are some big drops, particularly off to the right...
Pinnacle Ridge - St Sunday Crag, Lakes
We've run this before in the far distant past, but it's a nice, mellow film of an ascent of one of the best medium-grade scrambles in the Lakes. Makes your realise how much action cams have come on since 2005 though...
Cuillin Ridge - Skye
Hmmm... maybe not the music we'd have chosen, but some nice enough footage - 'I was tired securely to a rope, I was safe, but I didn't feel safe...'
Liathach - Torridon, with Muriel Gray
We couldn't find a good video of the Aonach Eagach, but check out this vintage clip of Muriel Gray on the excellent Torridonian sandstone ridge of Liathach.
Tower Ridge - Ben Nevis, part one
Not the most beautifully filmed or produced video out there, but if you want an idea of what the legendary Tower Ridge is actually like to climb in non-winter conditions, this gives a pretty reasonable idea. Part two below.
Tower Ridge - Ben Nevis, part 2
Second part of the Tower Ridge scramble from the Great Tower onward.
Sharp Edge In Descent - Blencathra, Lakes
And finally, if you're wondering what all the fuss is about, here's some footage of the iffy, erm, sharp bit of Sharp Edge being tackled in reverse.
