Lean conditions

21st January 2022

In an ideal world there would definitely be more snow and it would be colder! Although it's been warm and the wintery weather hasn't come to much over the last couple of weeks we have still been able to deliver good quality winter skills training. 

There are still some huge areas of snow that are enduring well. Linking these areas up to move around the mountains has worked really well so far and everyone has enjoyed their training with us. The January sunshine has definitely helped a lot! 

Fingers crossed winter makes a return in February and doesn't decide to hold off untl May!

Winter courses

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.
