A wild start to our winter courses #winterskills #wintermountaineering #skitouring

16th December 2018

Yesterday was a wild, wild day with winds of over 100mph over the summits- not the ideal start for our winter courses.

We did attempt to venture out but progress was too difficult and the risks too high.

Todays weather made up for everything and our winter skills team, uni winter mountaineering duo and ski touring keen-bean all enjoyed some excellent conditions. 

Next week is looking a bit wild at times. Make sure you keep up to date with avalanche and weather forecasts if you're planning to head out.

Winter courses

An absolutely amazing mountaineering course, I couldn’t recommend highly enough. From the outset Dave took an interest in the skills we wanted to achieve and the capability of the group and tailored the course to us. We were provided with expert training and advice at every step. This was a challenging week of mountaineering that fit in as much learning and experience as we could fit into 5 days. I would highly recommend to anyone interested in Mountaineering or sharpening the skills they already have. Massive thank you to Cairngorm adventure guides.
