Great conditions in the 'Gorms (at last) #winterskills #ski touring #climbing #courses #introduction #cairngorms #Scotland

1st March 2017

After a fairly driech weekend (well done to all those who survived and kept smiling) it's turned out to be a really cracking week. 

For us it's been more winter skills, winter mountaineering and ski touring. Although at times challenging, conditions have also been excellent for learning and practicing new skills on. We've had a mix of private winter skills teams, women only groups and our open courses all out making the most of it. 

It feels though it'll be a late winter this year. Fingers crossed for skiing right though until May!

Winter courses

Dave was an excellent hiking guide who took us on incredible hikes in the Highlands while ensuring our safety and entertainment. He was considerate of our hiking experience level and adjusted the pace accordingly. Despite hiking over 6 miles and up and down beautiful trails, including reaching the top of a decently sized mountain, we maintained a comfortable and enjoyable pace. Dave was also friendly and accommodating, making the experience even more pleasant. You can hire Dave or one of his team for a reasonable fee and enjoy hiking in the Highlands. Forget staring at your phone or a map. Let Dave or his team lead the way.
