Turning colder

8th February 2022

After a very warm January it's good to see more snow on the hills are for the forecast to be colder.

January was a tough for delivering courses and we were foreced to cancel a number of skiing courses, due to a lack of snow. The limited snow we did have was actually surprisingly good, it's just that we could have done with more! Nonetheless, our really experienced and skilled team managed to deliver lots of excellent training and we've had lots of positive feedback.

Hopefully the weather will play ball for the remainder of winter...... I suspect not though!

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!
