Winter Skills & Winter Mountaineering in the Cairngorms

22nd December 2017

It's been a great week with loads of teams out on winter skills and winter mountaineering courses. 

The week started of cold and wintry but slowed warmed throughout the week. Although lots of snow was lost, cool nights kept what snow remained firm and good for our teams to do their stuff on.

Rory and pals finished their fifth day of a private winter skills course today with a mountaineering journey over to Loch Avon. 

It's looking cold and unsettled over the festive period which will bring conditions back.

Here are a few snaps of the last few days.

Winter courses

Brilliant winter skills course led by Emma. The course felt personal to our ambitions and goals. Emma tailored every aspect of the weekend to give us the best training we could want. Emma’s knowledge and experience was evident and allowed us to feel confident in every decision and exercise we conducted. Would recommend this company for anyone who wants to learn winter skills in a safe and controlled manner this was worth every penny
