Winter is coming... #rockclimbing #ridgescrambling #mountaineering #seakayaking

5th October 2020

Things have turned cooler, the nights are drawing in and there even been some snow on the tops.

Over the last month or so we've had plenty of teams out rock climbing and mountaineering, and we've also managed some personal sea kayaking. The weather's been mixed so being creative and flexible has been key to having successful days out.

It's always exciting thinking ahead to winter and hoping for great conditions. This year will be a little different with new covid protocols, but we're looking forward to getting out ourselves as well delivering lots of winter skills, winter mountaineering and ski touring courses. 

Winter isn't quite here yet though and there's plenty of time to enjoy autumn and all its fantastic colours.

Our cousres are beginning to fill up already, so please get in touch if you'd like to join us.

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!
