Ok, surely enough is enough? 

It's been an amazing winter but with temperatures reaching high teens in the glens today, it's time to say goodbye to winter and hello to summer.

Over the last few weeks we've continued to have teams out walking, ski touring and winter climbing (even this week!). We've also had a couple of rock climbing teams out too, at Kingussie Crag and at Logiehead on the Moray Coast.

Keeping is busy for the last few weeks has been work for Mountain and Water Safety Specialists on a large feature film being shot in various locations around Scotland that required lots of mountaineering and moving water safety.

For the keen beans amongst us there are still winter adventures to be had. For us, it's time to enjoy an endless summer.....

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!
