Winter arrives just in time #winterskills #winterclimbing #skitouring

13th February 2020

On days like today it's easy to forget how lean and challenging winter has been, perhaps we only remember what we want to!

We've had lots of happy customers out on winter training courses this month. Everyone understands how difficult the conditons have been, but are very happy when their course exceeds thier expectations.  

Having an experienced and excellent team is key to this.

Today we had teams out climbing and walking, and we managed an afternoon ski in Lurchers Gully. It's always worth sticking with winter becuase when it gets good in Scotland, it gets very good.

Absolutely loved the course! Our instructor Annie was very good and knowledgeable about all aspects of touring, she taught us all about the kit, what to pack in bag, avalanche training, planning of tour and lots more. The first day we toured to top of Cairngorm summit with some Ice on the way and managed to test ski crampons. The second day was probably one of the best experiences On skis when we reached the summit of Gael Charn and the view was unreal and the ski down was brilliant. Amazing week and recommend the course.
