Lots of snow and lots of happy clients

In fairness the weather has been mixed, but it's the good days you always remember. A few days last week and on Saturday were as good as it gets; with deep snow to low levels, blue skies and sunshine. It's been great to see so many people out enjoying themselves and making the most of the weather.

As usual, we've had lots of winter skills and winter mountaineering / climbing teams out, all looking to develop the skills and confidence for getting out independently. 

We have limited availability during our February winter skills, ski touring and mountaineering courses, so please get in touch if you'd like to join a course.

If you're heading out don't forget to look at the avalanche forecasts and do your planning to make sure you have a great day.

Winter courses

I completed the 2-day winter skills course with John followed by a 2-day winter climbing course with Dave. Can't recommend these two courses enough. Both John and Dave delivered two brilliant courses especially given the lack of snow! The winter skills course was informative and provided great foundational information on hiking safely in winter conditions. This led perfectly into the winter climbing course where Dave was extremely flexible given the conditions and my minimal climbing experience. We covered loads over the two days including leading, abseiling and belaying, to name a few. A great few days in Aviemore. Thank you Dave and John!
