A wild weekend but smiles all round. #winterskills

15th January 2018

We had some pretty ferocious winds this weekend in the Cairngorms but much fun was had despite the weather! Here are some pictures from our Winter climbing and winter skills courses over the weekend.

It's looking like there's going to be quite a bit more snow falling over the next few days, so the conditions will be improving for skiing. We still have a limited number of places left on our Intro to ski touring course on 27th January, so please get in touch if you'd like to know more or to book.

Check out our great range of winter skills, ski touring and winter climbing courses.

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!
