Great start to January

9th January 2022

During the Christmas and New Year mini heat wave, we had feared for the worst, but conditions quickly turned cold in early January and we have been able to deliver all of our courses so far. Since the start of the year we've had a good mix of winter skills, winter mountaineering, winter climbing and ski touring going on, with over 50 clients out. Even when the weather isn't playing ball there are always venue options that allow good quality training to still take place. Next week looks a touch warmer but then things cool down again at the weekend - let's hope that's it for the season! Liam

Winter 2023

Check out our great range of winter skills, ski touring and winter climbing courses.

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!
