Excellent early season conditions #skitouring #winterclimbing #cairngorms

27th November 2019

November conditions have excellent and probably better than most of last season!

We've had lots of ski tours around Cairn Gorm and have enjoyed some fresh snow, sunrises, night skis and hanging out with friends. The winter climbing season has also begun and it's been nice to swing axes again. 

All in all a great start to the season.

The forecast from the rest of this week and into next week is for more cold and snowy conditions. Let's hope it stays that way.

Our courses are filling up with only a few spaces here and there. Doing some early season winter training definitely helps you make the most of winter.

Winter courses

I had a great time at Aviemore for my 2 days introduction to winter skills course. The guides were extremely knowledgeable and always made time to answer everyone's question. Thorough checks on the correct kit and being prepared for a day in the mountains made me aware of a couple flaws in my own preparation. I have now corrected these and feel more confidant of the hills as a result. Very worth while doing so don't hesitate to sign up and learn how to be safe.
