Thanks to all the clients who've been out on courses over the last wee while. This winters conditions continue to be challenging, but we've still managed to deliver lots of courses, making the most of what we have. The weather forecast is looking wintry again, but it remains to be seen how long it will stay cold for. Here's hoping for at least a month! 

Here are some snaps from winter skills, intro winter walking and guided climbig days of late.

Winter courses

We went on the 2 day Intro to Winter Mountaineering course and couldn't praise it highly enough! Dave was an incredible instructor - friendly, patient and super familiar with all the mountain terrain near Aviemore. We recapped our basic winter skills before progressing onto ropework, belaying and steeper routes. We became more independent the second day, leading the routes with Dave's guidance. Dave was more than happy to tailor the course to our level and needs, allowing us to push ourselves whilst always feeling safe. There are loads of outdoor guides and courses in the Cairngorms, but having now done two courses with Cairngorm Adventure Guides we would recommend them to everyone!
