Great conditions for this week's winter skills & winter mountaineering courses

11th January 2018

Excellent conditions for some winter skills last week with Cairngorm Adventure Guides! Adventurers from all over the country had great fun in some pretty chilly conditions on our Winter Mountaineering and Winter Skills Courses with Iain and Rachel.

Another team was also out learning crucial avalanche awareness skills with Kev. Definitely a course to think about booking on if you're heading out into the hills this winter. These skills could save your life, as well as giving you the confidence to plan days out and assess the conditions on the ground for walking, climbing and skiing.

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!
