Class video, those icicles and the water running under the ice are just fantastic. Love watching those hounds happily enjoying the outings, karma and subbed.

Fantastic, does look like it was super cold! You're game walking up the granite trail carrying all your gear, that's a slog and a half  8)

cheers. the water under the ice looked like giant tadpoles or something. icicles where like something out of narnia.

it was cold. got a good soaking with the rain while putting the tent up. i could see the steam pouring of the hounds for a bit! we all piled on top of one another to keep warm!

i walked to the carn without gloves in the morning in between showers. it was painfull, didn't take long till we all piled back into the tent. stuck my hands between the labradors neck and the roll mat till they came back to life! The granite trail is a slog but i think it's easier to get to about 200m that way rather than from donard park. plus you get a nice hut to rest in at the top!

Well done another great wee video  :)

Cheers!

Well done. Sharing a tent with two dogs must be really cosy but doesn't it get a bit farty in there!
