Lean conditions

21st January 2022

In an ideal world there would definitely be more snow and it would be colder! Although it's been warm and the wintery weather hasn't come to much over the last couple of weeks we have still been able to deliver good quality winter skills training. 

There are still some huge areas of snow that are enduring well. Linking these areas up to move around the mountains has worked really well so far and everyone has enjoyed their training with us. The January sunshine has definitely helped a lot! 

Fingers crossed winter makes a return in February and doesn't decide to hold off untl May!

Winter courses

I would definitely recommend using them for navigation skills. I booked A1 day course. Communication with Dave before the course was good as well.. Dave or guide was very friendly and welcoming and made us feel at ease. Explaining what was going to happen in the day and asked us too what we would like to get out of the course. Dave was great at explaining and giving instruction and I actually surprised myself that I manahed to correctly follow them too. . When I'm ready to go in to the next level of navigation. Cairngorm Adventure Guides will be my first go to to find a course. A great day and I don't feel so useless at using a map and compass now. Woo hoo!
